I think it would be as useful, if not more so, for someone to make an indiglo remote.

The front buttons are easy to find in the dark, but the remote requires that you "grope for the nipple" (Fabris, 2000) to determine the correct orientation, then count in the correct grid reference from top-left, or bottom-left an axis at a time to locate the correct button in the dark.

Indiglo might be the perfect material to illuminate the remote, it must be possible with a cell battery as Timex use it in their Indiglo range of watches. I suspect that a sheet as large as the remote would use rather more energy, but I could cope with changing the battery regularly for the convenience in the car, or even a cigarette lighter adapter for it.
