Anyone interested in peanut style remote control?

Just trying to gauge interest. My favorite remote control has always been the original Microsoft peanut shaped remote with the TV power button. Unfortunately that remote isn't made anymore. There are many like it but none that can control the TV. I've tried many others but still prefer the original remote. After an unsuccessful search I pondered sourcing the remote myself. I can't get the exact same remote but I do have one that is close. This remote should have a similar shape, and discrete TV and Receiver power buttons. A rough estimate of the cost would be around $20. I would need to purchase a minimum amount and I don't want to be stuck with them. This is just an informal (non binding) poll to see if it is something that others want before I get too deep. If enough people are interested I'll post more details and photos and go from there.

Give it time!

I'd like to find a similar remote for when my last few MS ones get used up.
