Remember TiVoRemote, the application that lets you control your TiVo from an iPhone/iPod Touch? Well, it’s been recently updated and now looks way much better. Aside from the improved user interface, TiVoRemote v0.23 also brings some neat features. For instance, it can now detect TiVos in your house (in case you have more than a single unit installed), providing you with an option to select which device you want to control. Then there’s the ability to download the “Now Playing” list data from TiVo and see what’s been recorded on you iPhone, and start playing the recordings automatically…
If you own a TiVo and an iPhone you’ll certainly love the app. You’ll need a jailbroken iPhone/iPod Touch and then all you need to do is add “http://tivoremote.googlecode.com/svn/www/repo.xml” to your Installer.app and look for TiVoRemote under the “Toys” category. Alternatively, you can download the app from Google Code and manually install it.

The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
