Samsung remote for smart TVs to feature touchpad, voice control

It apparently combines Bluetooth and IR transmission for stronger reception, and can be used for other devices such as Blu-ray players. No word yet on whether it'll do anything for your future windows or washing machines, but here's hoping.
