Media Idea: Kymera Magic Wand Universal Remote

It happened twice yesterday. Around noontime, in my attempt to locate a watchable channel among the fifty or sixty-odd Springfield's cable provider offers, I fiddled with four different remotes before finding the one that actually controled the living room TV. This, mind you, in broad daylight. Hours later, albeit in a darkened living room, I watched in horror as my cousin puzzled through the same embarrassment.
Dabblers, today's media idea is a simple sorcery of but two words: No More!
Looks like our little spell did the trick. In fact, we've located a gadget that couldn't be more in-line with the New Magical Age of Abbracadabbling. The Kymera Magic Wand Universal Remote looks like a magic wand, but it can actually be used to control your TV! It features a built in accelerometer, if you want to change channels you just flick the wand up or down.

The Wand can also control the volume: a simple clockwise gesture pumps the bass up while a counter clock-ise motion lowers your noise. According to the British wizards whose incantations conjured this audio-visual marvel, the Wand is guaranteed to work with almost every piece of modern technology that's out there (provided the marvel is equipped to receive such signals, of course).

This gizmo's going to be more popular than Alan Moore at a Supercuts, dabblers. But take heed: the Kymera Magic Wand Universal Remote won't be available in stores. It's only available for limited pre-order at The Wand Company. US magicians will be set back about $83 and while the Wand's made across the water in the U.K., North American orders will be shipped from right here in the States.
