iRule: Turning an iPod Into a Universal Remote.
Metromode has a great story about a Metro Area startup called iRule.
iRule’s app, which starts at $200 with the accompanying hardware, took off almost immediately. Both Ben-Gal and Nemirovsky left their day jobs to focus on iRule early this year. Soon after they raised about $500,000 in an angel round, including an investment from Compuware’s new venture capital arm. The company recently hired three people, moved from Ben-Gal and Nemirovsky’s suburban homes to the Compuware Building in downtown Detroit, and is prepping to launch the Android version of its software.
