We've all been there: your favorite show is about to come
on, and the TV remote is teasing you with some ill-timed
hide-and-seek. If you have RadioShack's Kameleon 8-in-1 universal
remote control, its remote finder will let you zero in on
it right away. Just stick the finder wherever you like with
the supplied Velcro strip, press its button, and the remote
will emit a loud beep. The Kameleon can control up to eight
components, and it has a commercial-skip button for use with
video recorders that have the handy feature. Back-lighting
turns on instantly when you pick up the handset, though
you can defeat this function to extend battery life. Price
$80.
