1. An electronic device, comprising:
- a local wireless interface to receive control inputs from a remote control device, the control inputs including a scroll control input corresponding to a first movement of the remote control device and a select control input corresponding to a second movement of the remote control device; and
a controller that interprets the control inputs and controls the electronic device to carry out a function corresponding to the received control inputs such that at least one scroll control input prompts the controller to scroll through an ordered sequence of entries to increment a corresponding entry value and audibly output feedback as the entries are incremented.

Abstract
An electronic device may be controlled with a remote control device. The remote control device may be moved in a first manner to cause the electronic device to scroll through an ordered sequence. The remote control device may be moved in a second manner to cause the electronic device to select an entry from the ordered list. During scrolling of the ordered sequence, audio feedback regarding the nature of an associated entry may be provided to the user.

15. A remote control device for controlling an operational function of an electronic device, comprising:
-
one or more motion sensors for detecting motion of the remote control device; a controller that generates a scroll control input for the electronic device in response to detection of a first movement of the remote control device by the one or more motion sensors and a select control input for the electronic device in response to detection of a second movement of the remote control device by the one or more motion sensors; and a local wireless interface that transmits the scroll control input and the select control input to the electronic device. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)
