A group representing Father Christmases in the US is calling for Santa Clauses to be given priority for swine flu shots. The Amalgamated Order of Real Bearded Santas even held a seminar on the virus at a recent conference in Philadelphia.

The rival Santa America group is also calling for Father Christmases to be made a priority group for the swine flu vaccine - much like health care workers.

It's called a Logitech harmony one.

It has a touch screen. Basically when you have loads of things connected like TV's, DVD's, Stereos and they're interconnected you can program it to operate all of those.

So basically, on the touchscreen it will have a list of options such as watch tv, watch dvd and so on. Press watch DVD and it will switch the tv and dvd on and automatically select the correct input on the telly for the dvd and switch on the home cinema system if you have one and set that up correctly.

You can also set it up so that it shows all the sky channels as logos on the touchscreen. Press the channel and it will automatically switch to the channel.

It can control up to 15 devices including, TV's computers, dvd's, Home lighting, curtains and more.
