ThinkFlood is best  known for its universal remote control systems, but now it might become  famous for something totally different: discovering a way to bring peace  to the tiresome iOS/Android fanboy wars. Its new beta app for Android  provides complete control over the company's RedEye and RedEye Pro  products, which in the past were strictly iOS-only. In turn, a RedEye  system allows a range of IR-equipped devices in a home to be controlled  via WiFi -- so in principle you should now be able to control your home  theatre and other kit using your Android tablet or smartphone. But  here's the twist: users of the beta app will need 
both an Android device 
and an  iOS device in order to get full functionality, because the Android app  can't yet handle configuration. The company insists this limitation will  soon be fixed, but we say keep it. If all apps required us to own both  platforms, things would be so much more harmonious. Full PR after the  break.
