Altman said people who hear about TV-B-Gone start thinking about other nuisances. Friends have asked for ways to jam cell phones, shut down vehicle subwoofers and kill car alarms.

When they come up with a package deal count me in.  Thumbs up!

I do have a TV and I'm still happy. I live on my own which is the only reason I have one.

At last, I can finally turn off MTV Jamz or Chris Matthews at any location, from restaurants to airports. Even annoying stereos and car alarms can be turned off, you say? Indeed, this is an advancement in getting people to STFU. Slipgate - Thumbs up!

Sadly, no, although people have flooded this individual with mail requesting such.  This particular gadget only works on televisions.

Now all we need is one that changes the channel. imagine walking into a bar where people are watching a football game and changing the channel to C-SPAN...

(in case you don't know what C-SPAN is, it broadcasts live footage of the procceedings in the House of Representatives, and fills the time when the House is not in session with bland political commentary. Perfect for mind-sporking a room full of drunken morons)

Uh, yeah, they better not develop a version of that that works on car alarm. The last thing I need is for some shitstain to steal my fucking car after using that device on it.
