The Danish hi-tech manufacturer Lantic Systems, renowned for developing high end integrated entertainment systems, has designed a remote control in pure gold. It is probably the world’s most expensive remote control on the market – at a price in excess of US $55000, which compared to the standard remote control retailing from US $1050. The new remote control called Gold RC1 was shown at the METS 2007 Exhibition in Amsterdam, Holland, which is the world’s biggest marine equipment trade show. Inspired from the famed RC1 remote control from Lantic Systems, the Gold RC1 touts the same sleek make and cool metallic finish and ease of use. The Gold RC1 offers control over TV/video/DVD, music/CD, internet, e-mail, CCTV, burglary alarm, lights, curtains, air-conditioning and surveillance of navigation systems etc. First orders for the gold remote control have already been placed and they will start shipping the product from December 2007.
