Apparently we aren't the only ones miffed by the
WiFi-enabled ESPN Ultimate Remote. After peeling this thing out of its
dumbbell-esque packaging, critics over at
PC Magazine were simply unimpressed from the get-go. For starters, this thing actually belts out the network's theme song when you turn it on. If that's not reason enough to hold tight to your three Benjamins, you should also know that it "didn't execute any of its fancy web tricks gracefully," and setup was anything but simple. It gets worse. Reviewers stated that it was uncomfortable to hold, the buttons were too tightly packed and you're not able to send / receive emails from just any email address. If you
really need more convincing that this thing probably isn't a good buy (particularly with all those
other alternatives out there), check out the full review in the read link.
