Lost amidst the excitement of the new video-capable iPod, Apple introduced a new revision to the iMac that contains a new application that just may be the media control savior we have been waiting for. Apple’s Front Row, is a new entertainment control application that seems to be well-suited for mobile in-car media.
The new program seamlessly manages all music, DVDs, videos and photos in a single easy-to-use interface. The UI of the application has large controls that look to be easily accessible on a small touch-screen interface. You can check out an interactive demo of the software here.
Another feature of the new iMac that could be a great in-car solution is the new 6-button remote. The new remote is designed to easily access and control the Front Row application and all of your media. With a loaded Mac mini and the new remote, we would be set for controlling a majority of our system.

Front Row given a back seat If you’re still sitting in front of a Mac running Leopard or Snow Leopard, give Command-Escape a push. If you likewise purchased the first Apple TV fairly early on.
Right now it is hard to tell if Front Row and the Apple remote will be available (and useable) on any other Mac besides a new iMac, but we tend to think that this would be a smart move for Apple. Our fingers are crossed.
If anyone has any additional information on Front Row or the new Apple remote, drop us a line.
