Theeerrreee heeerrreeee! And for $50, you don't even have to push buttons anymore. Remember the days when you had to get off your chair to change the channel on your TV set? Then came the remote control, and all that back and forth exercise changed to button pushing. Now, we don't even have to push buttons anymore! How lazy are we?
InVoca's Voice Activated Remote Control controls your TV, VCR, DVD, cable and satellite all with the sound of your voice. It has over 54 voice commands like volume control, channel changing, and you can even dictate multi-step functions with a single command. This means you can change the channel on your TV and play a DVD all at once.
I'll tell you why I like this. First, I'm not allowed near our fancy TV remote control anymore, because I tend to forget all the commands, and immediately resort to button pushing. You have to understand, our remote control is very sophisticated, and it drives me a little crazy when it doesn't do what I want it to do. I have gotten a little better, but I can see sweat dripping off my husband's forehead when I make a move for it.
This remote will recognize up to four voices, and all you have to do is program it. So next time I decide to use our fancy TV, I can walk in the room and say "DVD", and hopefully everything will happen all at once. No more guessing games.
That should make husbands all over the world happy. What do think? Are you allowed near your remote control?

i would love it
darn cool!OMG,it's looks superior to the |" Mini Universal TV Remote Control " I've bought three days ago. Can anyone tell me which is better?
Ya it is awesome but what is the point of a woice activated remote? Why not just make the television woice activated? There is still the stress of loosing the remote but with a voice activated television the remote is gone
This will be great for the elderly and everyone that has trouble dealing with those tiny buttons.
