    Not sure I fully understand your request, but here goes:
    If you're looking for a remote who's display shows the songs, look into Home Dock Deluxe. (Its made by Keyspan - dont know about current compatibilty)

    You might also want to look at the Tekkeon - I like that it does music AND video for both older AND current iPods. This displays menus on your TV.
    - If you have an Older iPod (5gen) you can even view lyrics.
    - If you have iPhone/iPod Touch you use your video Playlists (you can VIEW video for all)

    I had some serious probs with the DLO (interference issues or something which made functioning extremely erractic, and DLO support was so awful I just returned it.) Interface was pretty but operationally funky and slow.

    unfortunately the remotes for both products are very cheasy, and for some reason - don't transfer to universal remotes, which make me think that they're NOT RF.

    Hope this helps,
    xandra (i own: orig iPod, iPod 5thGen, iPod Touch 3g)
    LR Setup:
    Polk RTi10's, RTi6's, CSiA6 (5 ch setup)
    Onkyo 705 & Denon 3808ci Receiver, Onk 875
    Parasound 2250 Amp
    Sony 26" KDL series Bravia LCD
    Panny DMR-EH75 Recorder
    Panny DVD-F87 (5 disk DVD player)
    NAD T585 (DVD/SACD)
    Yamaha DVD-C961 (5 disk SACD/DVD)
    SciAnt Explorer 8500HD Cable Box
    Orig & 5Gen iPods, , Wii

    Plans/Fantasies:
    • 400 disk player that handles ALL formats, sounds as good as NAD with Panasonic interface & compatability.

    If you have an ipod touch or iphone, use airtunes.
