Brilliant Idea Of The Day: SENIOREMOTE

Inspired by my own sainted mother, who has accidentally pushed some button or another on her remote that has now made her TV inoperable.

So here's my idea, which [livejournal.com profile] khristle helped me flesh out.

AT FIRST it just looks like a regular, old-fashioned, simple remote. Power, Mute, Channel Up, Channel Down, Volume Up, Volume Down, and the numbers 0 thru 9. NO OTHER BUTTONS, not even a "Program", "Set" or "Enter".

ON THE BACK will be a sliding panel that locks. THERE you will find all the Program, Input, Directional, Enter, Balance, Tone, Menu and other buttons that cause so much trouble!

But best of all? Holding down ANY THREE BUTTONS on the open side of the remote for FIVE SECONDS resets the entire remote and TV back to the original "Master Setting" (programmed by you when you set it up).

HOW PERFECT IS THAT???
