Who needs Front Row? I have Salling Clicker and a Palm

Software company Geniecommands today introduced an exciting new Macintosh software program designed to give consumers more control and fun over their digital entertainment experiences in their lounge room. GenieCommands is a unique programmable software application that allows you to control all your applications and media via simple menus and a KEYSPAN REMOTE, in a theatre or lounge room environment. They provided a complete set of demo Applescript menus to get you started, with links on where to download additional software. These menus can then be edited to suit your lifestyle or create a new one. Genie is not a one stop solution like Front Row, it is more user definable and can do more with iTunes. It's about audio and good cheap content is what we want. We know Apple will take Front Row further and we love what they have done with the first version, so we have incorporate it into our software on top of the first menu so nobody misses out. Future upgrades to Geniecommands in the coming weeks will include a Themes importer. There has also been suggestion of an small screen version in the near future. Talking with distributors of a remote control brand they have said that it may come down as much as $20 in the near future. As for the rest of the hardware more choice and lower costs are only just round the corner. So dip your toes in the water is warming for the Mac Media Center. www.Geniecommands.com

12. Posted at 5:10 PM ET on Oct 23, 2005 by Bishop Hi! I also use a Nokia 6600 mobilephone. Can you tell me, what is the exact name of the software, that you installed on your phone? And where can I find it? Thx for reply! Gergely

zollo di pollo, here's a front row script for salling clicker, http://www.salling.com/forums/download.php?id=72 and here's some more cool scripts for various applications, http://www.salling.com/Clicker/mac/scripts.html

What I need is a frontrow sailing clicker script... and you get the best of two worlds. a remote for my brand new non microsoft media center

Looks like good info - thanks a lot! I'll be trying that out tonight. One question: that looks designed for using their HotSync Manager - is that what you're using? My wife really wants integration with iCal, and we were under the impression that you have to use iSync to do that...

Sure Jemaleddin, here's a Knowledge Library article at Palm's site with a good step-by-step: http://tinyurl.com/9dbze (this will redirect you to a Palm site, as the original link was long, ugly and it broke in our comment system.) One catch about their tutorial: they instruct you to go into the Palm's preferences, tap "Communication", then tap "Connection." In the TX, "Connection" is right in the Palm's main Preference section, there is no "Communication." Hope this helps.

David: Did you get it to sync with iCal etc. over BlueTooth yet? My wife bought a T|X over the weekend and we haven't had any luck. Tips?

Clicker absolutely Rocks! I finally took the time to buy a copy after playing with it over the last year or so.... It is a mighty, mighty fine piece of software running on my Nokia 6600. I'm looking forward to getting a Palm giving it a go with the larger screen.

mitey, absolutely right.. i used to take my ipods to parties, and while it was a hit to have a few thousand songs to pick from, i do things differently now. I take my powerbook, my airport express and my phone (i've used salling clicker with my previous SE T630 and current SE S710. I also run 'jewelcase' to serve as a 'now playing' window. I've done this for about a dozen parties and people just think i'm from mars or something.. "you can do that??!?!?!!". Yep. ;)

Yes Yes! I've been wondering why there hasen't been more raving revews on the sailing clicker. If you haven't checked it out go now! It will remote your world!
