Attention X10 Fanatics: Beta Testers needed for ALL NEW X10 RF iconRemote!
That's right, guys - it's coming soon! X10 fans old and new have been demanding RF control on their iconRemotes for a long time. We’ve listened!

We're working on the test models right now and we need beta testers. You could be one of the first people to test the new X10 RF iconRemote.

In addition to the existing iconRemote features, this new remote will:

•   Control X10 devices using a Transceiver (TM751) or ActiveHome (CM15A)
•   Display X10 devices as favorites on LCD screen
•   Set up 9 rooms and label them on LCD screen, with control of up to 99 devices in each room
•   ALL ROOMS feature which allows you to access all X10 favorites at once
•   Control X10 cameras, including the Vanguard & Sentinel Pan-Tilt-Zoom cameras - control all camera-specific commands
•   Arm/Disarm your X10 Home Security System with the touch of a button (password protected)
•   Create Macros of X10 commands (up to 100 steps!) and store them on hard keys, in favorites, etc.
•   Use the X10 RF iconRemote with existing PowerMid and extend the range of existing remotes, use through media cabinet doors, in another room, etc.

THIS IS BIG NEWS!

We're looking for testers who use X10 products extensively, use X10 cameras (XCam, Vanguard, etc.), use X10 security systems, ActiveHome Macros or PowerMids!

We want to make this the best remote you have ever used and we need your help! For more information, respond to this post or contact us via email at: michaelm@x10.com with your name, email address, phone number, city/state & what X10 products you own.

Thank you to everyone who has signed up for the upcoming Beta Test.  At this time, we have a full panel.  However, we are willing to accept a few more participants willing to be substitues in the event more are needed.  If interested, please email us at community@x10.com and let us know.

I received a phone call.   

Would it be safe to assume that everyone who is "in" also got such a call?

BTW, the beta test hasn't actually started yet.

If you're not already a beta-tester for this product, you most likely won't be.

At present, the beta-test is in progress and most likely nearing its end.

Being one of the lucky few allowed to beta-test this product, all I have to say is WOW!

Take the existing Icon remote, mate it with the X10 wireless transmitter in the Palm Pad (with better range), eliminate the need to fuss with the "code wheel" to control multiple house codes and then add the wireless transmitter from a Powermid for "through wall" control of your of your TV / VCR / Cable box, etc. (requires a Powermid receiver), and an "upgraded" user interface and you're just starting to get the picture!

As one beta-tester put it; "It is the one remote to rule them all!".
