Thanks to Bill Gates, you can run Java ME tech on your TV remote

Hey, thanks, Bill Gates! Your Windows CE on this TVCompass brand SR 1500 Digital Media Remote (DMR) enables Java ME technology to run on something Al Bundy usually sticks down his pants when watching the ol' boob tube.

Windows CE enables Java ME tech on TV remote

Here's a quote: 

 In the SR 1500 incarnation, the 
 DMR design resembles a cross between 
 a typical smart remote control and 
 a cellphone. Like many cell phones, 
 it has a QVGA (320 x 240) color 
 display, plus 802.11b/g wireless 
 networking.  There's also a Web 
 browser, with optional J2ME
Great. Now, I can play the Java ME version of American Idol The Wireless Game, while watching... American Idol. How very Escher-esque...
