Or you could make an app for existing tablet devices that can control almost any B&O products in your home.
Oh wait...
Touch screen for remote tv is terrible.
couple a years ago i bought a philips pronto.
a dissaster!

That is called the 'BeoRemote'-app - or (if you have a MLGW) the 'BeoLink'-app.
There is a tv - and there is a BV

I wonder why people still buy Beo4's & Beo6's when an app on your phone and tablet can do everything?
Ban boring signatures!
People are still buying Beo4 because it is simply more ergonomic ... i think it is nearly perfect, as long as you don't have to write text with it.

Spot on! Touch screen tablets as remotes are terrible!
I fear the product would be equivalent to an optional sat nav in your car which is ten times the price and inferior to a separate Tomtom . An iPad is a platform for the control interface. Perhaps a bang and olufsen case for an iPad would be the optimum solution ?
I never use the B&O controller app on the iPad as the beo4 is better anyway.

How about a combination?
A BeoPad as controller for choosing music/video (Spotify/NAS/Netflix....) and where to play it, looking up info's about the tv-programme, searching YouTube,....
...and a Beo4 for common control (as we know it).
The BeoPad could be made to correspond to the Beo4, when docked, as a two-way control - showing covers and other info of the current playing content.
Everything is possible with ip-based gear - question is: will it be made, and do people want to pay the extra for it?

They did it's called the Beo 6. Has all the compromises a touch screen requires.
...but still going (very) strong!

What would make a B&O of it? IMO there is nothing as boring as pad/phone with touchscreen, maybe a soapbar they are like.
blah-blah and photographs as needed
From what I heard, the replacement for the Beosound 5 might be a little bit of a Beopad...

I personnaly do not know anything, but Roger seem to...
Roger:I am still wondering why there are no details or rumors regarding the new audio system to be launched as well. More of a tablet-style than the current BS5... I can not be the only one with access to information from the dark side?
