    "Virginum Foreverum" is the best fake latin phrase EVAR. Thank's Giz for the Monday morning laugh.

    Any reference to blood ninja instantly elevated said post to epic levels.

    But seriously, this remote will give Harry Potter nerds a wonderful reason to cosplay while they sit on the couch.

    I think that this is an awesome and clever idea, if it were a lightsaber you'd be all over it.

    Personally, I'd think a guy was pretty awesome if he used that.

    A bit more of an obsessed fan than I can usually stand (which is saying something- I'm ridiculously obsessed with my various fandoms), but still awesome.

    I think it's kinda cool. I can see casual movements being more natural than pushing buttons. Think of writing numbers in the air or other programmed motions for specific functions other than Vol -/+ or changing channels. But I bet it would be nearly universally agreed that pretend wizards wand is probably not the game-changing form factor.

    Then you drop your remote and it falls on the floor and it changes channel and blasts static noise at you.

    Web based setup? It looks like it should support AT commands from my 9600 baud Hayes modem.

    It needs more hexagons. Everyone knows that if you're going the Seventies Sci-Fi route, there have to be hexagons.

    Monster, please try again and don't return until this thing looks like a panel from Disney's The Black Hole.
