Verizon FiOS Users Can Use Droid as a Remote – Reviews by PC Magazine.

Your Remote. Your Control: Taking the FiOS Experience Mobile

Starting this week, FiOS TV customers who also have a Motorola Droid or HTC Imagio handset can use these devices to control their HD set-top-box. You’ll have all the same functions of the standard FiOS remote and then some!  You can change channels, manage parental controls, pause, rewind, fast forward or record a TV show – all through the cell phone.

That’s not all. With a touch of the handset’s screen, you can transfer one photo at a time from the handset to the TV or even view an entire slide show of photos stored on the mobile device.

Have a favorites list? You can import it from the TV to the cell phone and then use the phone to select your favorite channels on any FiOS TV. And don’t worry about turning down the volume when answering a call. The device will automatically mute the TV set and resume to the previous volume level once the call ends.
