Remote Control Light
I saw this little gadget spammed posted about in our forums, the Buddy Lite, a lite for your remote control.
The concept is pretty simple, the base attaches to the bottom of your remote using Velcro and the light can then be positioned via a bendable spring like arm. So the next time you’re watching a slushy movie in the dark and need a beer top up (and you don’t own a beer launching fridge) you can pause the movie without having to blind your partner.
I must admit I’ve never had any trouble using my remotes by touch and now that I have one of those ambilight screens I can actually read the paper with the lights turned off.
To me the most interesting thing about the BuddyLite is it took 3 years of R&D to implement, go figure. More info and availability over at the Buddy Lite site.

This, THIS, took three years to develop? A light with a strip of velcro? What else, did it cost ten million and a team of Nasa-engineers?
