Finally a 2.0 upgrade! Will check it out and see how it pans out.
EDIT:
Hmmm. Update not showing up, but yet the new updated remote app (along with the ugly iTunes icon) shows up in the iTunes store.

I'd be happy just to have my Remote.app working again. It hasn't worked since iTunes 10.0.0

The big thing for me, does it have a full-screen option for iTunes? That's been bugging the hell out of me.

That's one big a$$ remote. Nicely done. I bet only one guy made this remote app too.
