I lost the Apple Remote that came with my Macbook, but it’s not a problem thanks to a Nokia N900 widget called Raemote developed by Thomas Perl.

Raemote is currently available for download in the application manager of the Nokia N900 under the Extras-testing repository. If you have no idea what that means, check out my guide to Maemo Extras.
