Have you reached the point of ultimate laziness and can't even be bothered to control iTunes from bed?
According to a report on MacRumors.com, Apple has a solution — use your iPod Touch or iPhone as a remote.
The application, aimed at letting people remotely control iTunes in the home, is described in information included with the iTunes 7.7 pre-release version that was made available to developers on Thursday.
According to the MacRumors report, the application will "presumably" allow people to play back their iTunes audio with the help of Wi-Fi.
The report offers these details from the developers pre-release version, based on the "Read Me" area of the iTunes installer:
Use iTunes 7.7 to sync music, video and more with iPhone 3G, and download applications from the iTunes Store exclusively designed for iPhone and iPod Touch with software version 2.0 or later. Also use the new Remote application for iPhone or iPod Touch to control iTunes playback from anywhere in your home — a free download from the App Store.

You kinda missed the point... it's not about lazyness. Say for example you have your home audio setup hooked into your mac for playback from itunes - you could be listening from another room well out of the line of sight of the infra red remote.

Agree with Billbo - I like this application as I don't have to contort myself to aim the mac remote at the laptop in the next room!
