beo 6

That would be great if it was a widescreen remote and had back lighting as well but could be a updated Beo4?

The reason given for the old two way being dropped was the slow transmission speed. I cannot see that the Beo6 would use this system. It must be to allow the browsing of large music and video libraries and so will be unlikely to use IR transmission. My iPhone is already jolly good at this!

It'd be a shame if they don't include two-way IR functionality - I'm dying to start using the timer in my Beosystem as my alarm clock, but don't want to spend several hundred pounds on a 20-year old (but very impressive) Beolink 7000.

Really though, including two-way IR would be a silly decision on B&O's behalf - think of how few people are out there to using two-way systems in comparison to the number of people with new systems, all these people would be spending money on technology they don't need...

 did a quick search -found another beo6 topic

It looks almost exactly like the Beo5 except the wider screen
