Timex iControl watch bosses your iPod aroundBy Philip Berne, 2 August 2007

The newest addition to the IronMan watch family, the iControl can wirelessly control basic functions on the iPod in your pocket.

The Timex IronMan iControl watch gives you wireless remote control of your iPod, or iPhone, if the phone is in "Airplane" mode. Though Timex doesn't give too many details in their release about how it actually works, we assume there is a separate dongle that attaches to the iPod. Best if it uses radio frequency instead of IR, as we doubt it will get a line of site into our pants.

The watch also packs a bevy of sporty watch features, like various lap timers and programmable alarms. Timex says you can buy it now from their Web site or Apple's online store for $125.
