Don’t get me wrong, I love a remote that has convenient features, but I also like a remote that’s compact. Unfortunately, the Pultius Remote from Art Lebedev falls a little short in that category. The remote features 99 individual channel buttons and three additional buttons for adding 100, 200, or 300 to the original number. All in all, the user ...

Damn, where did I put that remote? Sounds familiar right? Add a few more explicit words in there and you have an average day in my living room.
