Loading ...I've thought for some time that it would be awesome if I could control iTunes from my iPhone. I tend to just let my tunes play throughout my house, as my speakers can be heard throughout most of the house. Unfortunately when I want to pause the music or change a song, I have to run to my computer. Well it seems that Apple already has something up their sleeve in this department.
For those that have downloaded the pre-release version of iTunes 7.7 (for developers) there was a little something snuck into that pesky 'Read Me' that most of us simply skip through. The important snipit is below.
Use iTunes 7.7 to sync music, video, and more with iPhone 3G, and download applications from the iTunes Store exclusively designed for iPhone and iPod touch with software version 2.0 or later. Also use the new Remote application for iPhone or iPod touch to control iTunes playback from anywhere in your home -- a free download from the App Store.
I would venture to guess that you'll be limited to controlling iTunes on only the PC that the iPhone is synced with, which shouldn't be an issue for most people. This particular feature had been rumored to be coming since late April. It's good to see some of these rumors coming true.

Stinking awesome!!! (Now if I can just find a app to allow my iPhone to control my PS3 bluRay player via Bluetooth all would be right with the world!) :-)
