It might be better to just get another gerbil.

how come no one has yet come to the conclusion that it would not be hard at all to use the same concept as a cordless phone in finding it when lost. If you were to lose your cordless phone you go to the mase station and press a button and teh phone beeps loudly and you set out to follow the sound, why cna no one come to realize to d the same with tv clickers

       my tv has one of those. you press a button on the tv and the remote beeps. [m-f-d] redundant. (link).   

       now if they could only invent a spell checker for computers.

       Rechargeable would be nice too. (link)   

       I'm with you, stove. I hated seeing this stuff already here. Toot sweets, mothers’ milk cheese, and rechargeable remotes with paging. They had it all before we even knew there was a site for halfbakers. But it’s still a pretty cool place to look around. And even though it's marked for deletion, it's still better than the HalfUNbakery For the Pessimists (am I allowed to say that?)

       Why not make a remote big enough to trip over ?

       because that would be un egronamical and stupid and who would want a jumbo remote control in their living room, esspecailly inan apartment where the remote would be like a peice of furniture

       I think TV's should come in pairs. That way, you can use one of them as a TV and the other as a remote. And, if one breaks down you can just switch them.

       Make it 7' long, upholster the bastard, sit on it and use a console on the arm nearest the TV to change channels. With a nice leather feel and a touch of veneer it might also prove to be egronamical.
Betcha don't lose it, either.
