Philips reveals Pronto TSU9800 touchscreen remote

by Darren Murph posted Sep 8th 2008 at 6:48PM

Rather quietly, Philips has taken the wraps off of its TSU9600 successor, the TSU9800. For those familiar with the former, you'll notice a plethora of similarities on the newcomer, but this version does include an expansive 6.4-inch VGA display, two extra buttons and an optical rotary wheel. As expected, the unit can be used as a handheld or wall-mounted device, and the docking station enables it to tap into an Ethernet connection. A price and release date have yet to be posted, but we wouldn't expect Philips to hold out on us for too much longer.
