The French have done it again.

Thanks to Laurent from iPhon.fr for introducing me to this little program that is still in it's early stages of development. iSofa is a FREE application that runs on your host Mac (No Jailbreak required) and then lets the iPhone/iPod Touch act as a remote control for the Mac through port 9999 over your wireless network.

At this point, you can only control iTunes, Front Row, DVD Player, Quicktime, VLC, and it gives you the ability to Wake your Display, Turn on the Screen Saver and Sleep the Display. The program is brought to you by Ben & Mat through iPhon.fr,

-Works under Tiger and Leopard (Mac OS X 10.4 & 10.5).
-Administration: Available from your computer at http://(Your Macs I/P Address):9999/admin/ The Skin can be changed and a password set.
-Normal Access: At http:// (Your Macs I/P address):9999/ ie. http://10.0.0.1:9999/
-Browser: All files on you Mac can be read on the iPhone/ iPod Touch
-iTunes: Lets you browse your libraries and then uses the same controls as on your iPod to advance through the onscreen menus.
-Quicktime & DVD Player: Uses the same controller as iTunes with the added ability of changing window size up or down.

This is currently an Apple Macintosh only application and according to the comments over at iPhon.fr the Windows people are up in arms that Ben and Mat have made this for Macintosh only.

Let us know what you think over in the comments and forums.
