Does anybody out there know if what's described below exists?

I would like to see a cheap programmable universal remote designed for use by 'cognitively impaired' seniors. It would be programmed and then locked by a caregiver with normal abilities. It would control multiple devices without requiring the impaired end user to be aware that there are multiple devices involved. It would have only on / off, volume, and channel selection buttons active during normal use. It could not be accidentally re-programmed, could not have a 'wrong' device selected, or be otherwise messed up by random button pushing. It should also have large, back-lit buttons and a very wide range of signal so that aiming it is not a requirement. Many seniors simply cannot understand that the TV has to stay on channel 3 and that tuning is done by a separate box, or that the TV can have multiple inputs. 'Normal' multi-device remote controls are just too complicated for them; they long for a rotary dial to change channels and a potentiometer-type analog volume control with built-in on/off switch. Think of your great-grandparent's first TV and make a remote that works like it did - after you set it up - for them.

Here is a very simple senior friendly remote control. It works the TV and set top box only. Great looking, it features big buttons and the 'Volume" and 'Channel" are spelled out to avoid confusion. It is universal, so will work with most TVs and set top boxes. It has a favorite channel list, so the user can avoid the guide and program buttons. And it locks, so it can't be reprogrammed. Its called Flipper Remote and is available at www.FlipperRemote.com!

Old post, this may even work:
