The Ultimate TV Remote
SAN FRANCISCO-October 20, 2004 — Mitch Altman wants to help turn off TVs – everywhere.
He's invented a small key chain gizmo that acts as a universal off switch. The San Francisco high-tech entrepreneur says the idea is to promote conversation in public places like bars and restaurants.
The TV B-Gone is programmed with about 200 codes covering all the major TV sets. The tiny remote cycles through them all.
Altman says it takes about 17 seconds to turn off the average TV.
He figured orders would trickle in, but says he's been swamped by the demand for the $15 device.
Altman says there's one place he wouldn't try using his TV B-Gone off switch – and that's a sports bar. He says he can be mischievous, but he's not stupid.
