If you thought that $300 for the ESPN Ultimate Remote was a tad too high when it was announced about a year ago, the invisible hand of supply and demand agrees with you. They’re now going for just over $100, which seems far more reasonable.

A built-in Wi-Fi connection and text messaging capabilities are the real draw here. While the remote will control all your AV devices like a good universal remote should, this thing’s built for sports fans with a 2.2-inch LCD that relays scores and stats in real-time for whichever game you’re watching along with TV schedules, weather, and news thanks to the click365 content portal.
