One very important but very important mobile gadget inside one’s home has always been the remote control. It has too many buttons and by the time you get the hang of it you either lose it or replace your TV altogether. And there are plenty of other gadgets that come with remotes controls, because nowadays almost everything out there can be remotely controlled.

So maybe what we need to do in order to improve our whole TV watching experience is get a universal remote which will work with most TV sets out there. Logitech has gone ahead and launched a couple of new remotes, the Harmony 600 and the Harmony 650.

Said remotes come with a screen, the Harmony 600 has a black and white one while the Harmony 650 has a full colored display. Although to be honest I’d rather worry about the action on the television instead of checking the screen from time to time to make sure I’m pressing the right buttons.

From a different point of view though, the remotes will be able to control other devices in your home hence the requirement of a screen in the middle of all those buttons. Logitech says that any of the two models will replace up to five other remotes so it’s definitely worth considering buying one of them. The Harmony 600 will cost around $79.99 while the Harmony 650 will cost $99.99.

And Logitech has also announced a new gadget for our notebooks, the Logitech Laptop Speaker Z205, a clip-on USB device that will work with most netbooks and laptops out there. The device is definitely worth checking out if you want to upgrade your laptop’s sound capabilities while on the go. The gadget will be available in the U.S. and Europe later this month for just $39.99. Are you buying it?
