Can the Present Have Fewer Buttons?

harmonyone I have stopped dreaming about the day when we wont need remote controls at all. (a.k.a. the virtual reality chip implant in brain that will help us control everything by thought!)

Nah! who am i kidding. Coming Up: whole blog section dedicated to the "next" level of ubiquitous computing & ambient intelligence :D....

But for now, can we at least rid ourselves of excess buttons in tv remotes? How hard can it be? I already drew up a sketch of what that can look like (image on right).

Maybe dad should stop focussing on steel doors and get cracking on this remote control idea. Listening appa? You can make this fire-resistant too... AND in TITANIUM! :D
