Friday, 24 May 2002

 

X10 have never been known for their aesthetic designs. Indeed it's has been pretty obvious to any X10 user that the company haven't exactly been employing famous Italian design houses to make their products more appealing to the eye. However, if the latest releases from X10 are anything to go buy that may well be changing.

The new Key Chain Remote (or KR19E to give it it's official designation) is the sort of device that gadget heads will love. It looks sexy.
