    The phone does not have the parts it needs to be a remote. I however watch Hulu from a laptop hooked to my projector... and I use PhoneMyPC so that I dont have to get up to switch videos or pause. It connects right to my PC and acts as a mouse and keyboard.

    Seen it asked before. I don't think there is. I have an Harmony 1100 Remote and sometimes I confuse it with my Droid. Yes, it's bigger but when your multitasking you can get confused.

    FIOS and your TV are 2 separate things. Your TV's remote uses infrared so an app isn't going to be able to provide a solution on its own. The FIOS remote app uses data to connect to your FIOS box. If your TV is connected to the internet in a similar fashion then such a solution may be possible.
