I claim: 1. A system to detect and monitor temperature of a substance through an opening of a container, comprising: a sensor to detect temperature of the substance; a user interface coupled to the sensor and adapted to output information related to the detected temperature, to receive information
I claim: 1. A system to detect and monitor temperature of a substance through an opening of a container, comprising: a sensor to detect temperature of the substance; a user interface coupled to the sensor and adapted to output information related to the detected temperature, to receive information related to a target temperature, and to signal an event; and a base adapted to grasp the container and position the sensor; wherein the user interface is removable from, and re-attachable to, the base thereby allowing the user to monitor the temperature of the substance at a distance from the system. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the sensor is a non-contact sensor. 3. The system of claim 2, wherein the non-contact sensor is an Infrared (IR) sensor with a laser pointer adapted to visually identify the area of the substance where the sensor is detecting temperature. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the interface and the sensor communicate over a wireless connection. 5. The system of claim 4, wherein the wireless connection is automatically established upon the removal of the interface from the base. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the user interface includes an alert adapted to signal an event, and wherein the alert is automatically modified upon the removal of the interface from the base. 7. The system of claim 6, wherein the alert is automatically switched from an illuminating signal to an audible signal upon the removal of the interface from the base. 8. The system of claim 6, wherein the alert is automatically switched from an illuminating signal to a tactile signal upon the removal of the interface from the base. 9. The system of claim 1, wherein the user interface includes a display adapted to output the detected temperature of the substance. 10. The system of claim 1, wherein the user interface includes controls adapted to receive a target temperature from a user. 11. The system of claim 10, wherein the user interface includes an alert adapted to signal an event when the detected temperature is equivalent to the target temperature. 12. A system to detect and monitor temperature of a substance through an opening of a container, comprising: a sensor to detect temperature of the substance; a user interface coupled to the sensor and adapted to output information related to the detected temperature, to receive information related to a target temperature, and to signal an event; and a base adapted to grasp the container and position the sensor; wherein the base includes a neck adapted to position the sensor and arms adapted to grasp the container. 13. The system of claim 12, wherein the neck is shaped such that it extends over the container and allows detection of the temperature of the substance without any contact against the opening of the container. 14. The system of claim 12, wherein the neck includes a swivel mechanism to allow manipulation of the orientation of the sensor relative to the base. 15. The system of claim 12, wherein the arms are adapted to hold the neck of a wine bottle. 16. The system of claim 15, wherein the arms include a compliant material adapted to provide frictional engagement against the wine bottle. 17. The system of claim 15, wherein the arms include a mechanical element to allow adjustment of the span of the arms. 18. The system of claim 15, wherein the base further includes legs to hold the system in an upright orientation. 19. The system of claim 18, wherein the legs are adapted to fit over the neck of the wine bottle and rest on a shoulder of the wine bottle. 20. The system of claim 12, wherein the sensor is a non-contact sensor. 21. The system of claim 20, wherein the non-contact sensor is an Infrared (IR) sensor with a laser pointer adapted to visually identify the area of the substance where the sensor is detecting temperature. 22. The system of claim 12, wherein the user interface includes a display adapted to output the detected temperature of the substance. 23. The system of claim 12, wherein the user interface includes controls adapted to receive a target temperature from a user. 24. The system of claim 23, wherein the user interface includes an alert adapted to signal an event when the detected temperature is equivalent to the target temperature.
