Language that expresses turning the volume down as "shut off commercials while the picture remains on the screen" seems puzzlingly stupid.

It is much easier to ignore visuals than it is the audio shrieking out at +10dB above program levels. Funny; I didn't have you pegged as a moron. I was obviously wrong. Don't come on with that "gee, how counter-intuitive" bull**** when you don't have a ****ing clue about what you are saying. Quote:

I remember having a universal remote app on my old Palm TX, was really cool.
Tis a sad day when devices no longer featured internal infrared, now devices need those huge and ugly and expensive dongle things that plug into the headphone jack. |
