Dads lose out as phones rule the roost


Feb 27, 2012 (The Australian Financial Review - ABIX via COMTEX) -- South Korean consumer electronics maker Samsung and Australian telco Telstra are at the forefront of giving users the benefits of convergence between online, mobile and TV devices. Smartphone handsets can now be used to remotely control TV sets and personal video recorders, while LG Electronics has also developed a remote control that reacts to voice prompts by the user. This makes its possible to enter long web links that would be cumbersome on a traditional remote control unit.
