Remote Control Gets Revolutionised
Designed by Hillcrest, The Loop could very well be the future of remote
controls. 
The bracelet-design means you won’t lose it so easily although I do
envision more heated arguments over who controls the control.
The Loop only sports two buttons and a scroll wheel. The rest is software that turns TV listings into simple-to-navigate thumbnails. Just moving your hand and pointing will allow you to quickly scroll through the thumbnails and choose your desired programme. Think of it as Nintendo Wii remote control for the TV.
The technology has attracted a lot of interest from consumer electronics companies who plan to build support for it into their products from early next year. Just who exactly will launch something first is all hush-hush for now though.
WHAT APPALLING GRAMMAR or is it just a lack of proof reading?
"...more heated arguments over controls the control."
MAYBE THERE NEEDS TO BE A 'WHO' SOMEWHERE; NO?
"...interest from consumer electronics companies who be able to build support..."
MAY THERE NEEDS TO BE INSERTED THE WORD 'WILL'AS IN WILL BE ABLE TO; NO?

Maybe these inventors should realise that alot of people have just purchased plasma / lcd flat screens etc, and I dont think that this invention will work on these models and I for one will not want to replace a £1500 item in less than a year.

Well said Wilson,I was beginning to think it was only me who got annoyed by this lack of attention to detail. By the way,you've missed out 'be' between 'may' and 'there'in your second comment.
