Not sure if its glasscock
I saw it last year somewhere but Im not sure it was here. Quite funny really, although not for the companies that could have lost a fortune due to this scamp making their presentations look unprofessional. Still I wasnt working for one of them so hehe :)

The chap that makes the remote
reckons this stunt made him about $20,000 worth of sales, so at least someone came out of it happy.

Your next post on here is 200

That was a rare lapse of professionalism

This was so awesome...
... that it got them a lifelong ban from the most important consumer electronics exhibition in the world. Which basically made Engadget win the blog war.
