Brookstone sells so much stupid shit that this doesn't really surprise me.

I actually think it's a somewhat smart idea. But shouldn't this go in the youtube section?

Meh...it's not really a YouTube video, and you can discuss the remote itself I guess. Brookstone is pretty much king of "man that's stupid, but I fucking want it" products.

Well, what I think is that they first made all that programming and the 6 in 1 device, then realized they couldn't fit it into a normal sized remote. Coorperate didn't want to scrap all the work they'd done so far, so they gave a few guys who always seem to be on coffee brake a project, and this is the result.
STILL LOL THO!

I agree with M-G.
I mean it is stupid, not really funny. It's a bit to large, and universal remotes do come in a smaller size (or higher quality ones that are a bit larger, but have an LCD screen).

its a smrt idea but i think the commercial is poorly made so the remote sounds like a ***** idea
i admit it...i call remotes "channel clickers"...
