    Well, these days people buy $500 phones because it has a cool 3x optical zoom camera (which they'll never use because they have 3 other cameras including a couple of D-SLRs) :-)

                      Yeah, even $300 is more than I want to spend, which means I'm probably looking for something that doesn't exist. Oh, well, never hurts to ask. :-D

                                Don't you have kids for this kind of thing? When I was young our TV and sound system had two remotes; my sister and me. My father would point and say the channel, volume, command etc. and we'd do it. More seriously; got a mobile phone? Does it have WiFi or Bluetooth? You might be able to point it at your local webserver.
