Is RTI Changing Name to Pro Control?
Through some excellent investigative work, RemoteCentral.com proprieter Daniel Tonks speculates that Remote Technologies Inc. (RTI) is changing its name to Pro Control.
He notes that RTI, a leading provider of universal remote controls for professional installation, is exhibiting at CES 2010. We already knew that.
What we didn't know is that the company is exhibiting in a booth called Pro Control. That's the name of a company that shares the same Shakopee, Minn., address as RTI and the same booth number of RTI.
The CES site lists the exhibitor:
I would be surprised if RTI changed its name. Perhaps this is a new product line? An entry-level brand?
Nice scoop, Daniel!

It’s not quite a name change. RTI just issued a press release announcing its “new division” called Pro Control.
