The iPhone is looking to replace your humble remote control with a new application that is due to launch when the App Store goes live in July.

Called Airremote, the software and accompanying box of tricks which will cost £150, will give you an interface on your iPhone or iPod touch that allows you to control your Sky digibox, TV and even the lights in your home.

The new system is looking to replace the all-in-one remote controls like the Philips Pronto and is available as a software only or kit offering.

The new software will be available via the Apple App Store.
