Haptic feedback on handheld devices, specifically cell phones, has yet to hit critical mass.  But that hasn’t stopped URC from adopting the technology into their latest touchscreen remote, the MX-5000.   It features a 2.7-inch touchscreen LCD which should let you control your components from just about any where in your home thanks to the built-in WiFi and RF communication.  And what kind of high end remote would it be without a charging base station with IR and RS-232  components.   URC hasn’t released an official price, but when it goes on sale expect it to cost about $1,500.
