New iPod RF remote control announced
Engineered Audio has announced RemoteRemote 2, its latest RF wireless remote control for third-generation iPods. RemoteRemote 2 resembles Griffin's iTrip and similarly attaches to the top of the iPod, allowing users to control playback and volume of their iPod from a distance and through walls. RemoteRemote 2 will be available in black and white when it ships later this spring for $50; pre-orders are being taken now.

My only big complaint can't be fixed by the manufacturer because it's a problem with Apple's dock - you can't change the volume coming out of the dock's line-out port. So to control the volume with a remote, you have to plug into the headphones jack. :(

Well, some would argue the line out jack shouldn't be affected by the volume setting on the ipod, it should be controlled by the destination device (i.e. stereo).
