Television Remote Control Wristwatch

If you keep forgetting where you put the remote control than you might want this remote. Just enter in the three digit code for each device and it's ready to use. Or if you don't want it as a remote you can also use it as a digital watch. You can buy one here:

Dual Sided Remote

Later this year Samsung is releasing a new remote that has buttons on both sides. It will have the normal buttons on top and a QWERTY keyboard on the back. I don't think it's a good idea because you could accidentally hit a button on the back while holding it or if you set it down on the table.

New 3D electronics for 2011

One thing I really like is 3D movies and games and now a lot of new things have been announced to come out this year that will be in 3D but won't need 3D glasses. A lot of people already know about this but, in a few months Nintendo is releasing the 3DS which will let you play games in 3D without needing 3D glasses. It will have a depth slider on it also so you can change it from 2D to 3D if it hurts your eyes too much. Toshiba has a tv coming out that will use sheets of different angles over one another to give you the 3D effect and Toshiba is also releasing a 3D laptop computer this year.

Sofa Pillow Remote Control

Whenever people lose their tv remotes the first place they usually look is under the pillow on the sofa. Now you can use that pillow as a tv remote. It's a universal remote so it also works with your dvd and blu-ray players. If you don't use it for at least 60 seconds it disables the remote so you can use the pillow to sleep on. I can see a whole bunch of people not using this to sleep on though because you could probably accidentally change the channel while you're lying down. You can buy one here:

iDesign Digital Video Glasses

A while ago I showed you Hugo Gernsback's tv glasses that he made in the 60s. Unfortunately there isn't anywhere you could probably find them today but you can buy something that is close enough. These are the iDesign Digital Video Glasses. These are made to work with the ipod, iphone, portable dvd players, and some video game consoles. They can run up to 8 hours on a single charge. You can buy one here:

For those of you that have been counting, this is my 100th post.

TV Glasses

Back in the 1960s Hugo Gernsback invented a portable tv that looked like a pair of glasses. The picture on it was only 1 1/2" square. You can read more about him here:

Soccer Ball Remote

If you're always throwing the tv or dvd remote around then you'll want this. It's a remote shaped like a soccer ball. Unfortunately I can't find any information of who invented it. Right now it's out of stock but here's the link to buy it if they get more of them:
