Is there anywhere I can buy like three of these, I keep losing mine, because it's not important enough or big enough to keep track of, but when I need it... god do I need it. lol.

Also can someone repost the link to Remote Buddy (I think it's called?)

I just wish they made that thing in a nicer color than black lol. At least if they made a silverish-grey cap that camouflaged it when it was in the slot.
 
$38 with shipping seems a little steep for a remote control. lol.

So there's no way to by the apple one again?
 
Last time i went to the Apple Store (last week) they had tons of Apple Remotes in stock and ready for sale, go check out your local store.
 
*dies* My local apple store is more than a 6 hour drive. lol.

Do you think they'd have them anywhere they SOLD Mac's?
 
Yeah although the remote is pretty expensive in itself to begin with.

Just checked FutureShop, its 50 bucks!
