Bluetooth Lawnmowers to Cell Phone DVR Planning
by Tyler Knott Gregson | January 28th, 2008Last week Elizabeth posted about just how crazy it’d be to have a Bluetooth lawnmower cruising around your yard. Can you imagine? That said, in passing she also mentioned how the future truly is here in that she can simply email her DVR to tell it to start recording…well for all us mobile warriors, turns out the future is actually a lot MORE here than we thought.
That’s right friends, mobile warriors, American Idol lovers…DirecTV is actually going to be allowing you to program your DVR from your cell phone. Yeah, your phone. Think of this, you could be sitting in an airport and remember how much you can’t miss Lost and 10 seconds later, you’re recording. Crazy.
Basically it’s called the DirecTV DVR Scheduler and it’s pretty darn sweet for all you customers of the service. The ability to be mobile, stay mobile and not have to sacrifice the creature comforts of actually being home is amazing…not to mention futuristic. So, just imagine your Bluetooth Lawnmower cutting your grass, your DVR recording American Idol and you on a plane, 5,000 miles away. How Jetsons of you.
