Additionally including Bluetooth HID (Human Interface Devices) profiles, the W600i can be turned into a remote control. When connected to a PC through Bluetooth, the W600i simulates a combined keyboard and mouse. By assigning specific combinations of computer keyboard key presses to each key on the W600i's keypad, users can control computer applications from across the room.

Configuration files are needed for keypad controls of individual computer application. The W600i comes with a few preloaded files to navigate on a computer desktop, control presentations, and media players.
