Funny, what one person finds annoying, another finds desirable. The Kameleon has the brightest display of any of the remotes I have - others include a CHAD, an MX800, and Sony RM TP501e. Yes, if you step heavy you can activate the Kameleon which will light your way to the bathroom even in the dead of dark. This is good as you won't step on your dog, trip over shoes, or stub your toes. It is programmable, has macros and has a built in modem for upgrades. I'd think its night light quality would be a good thing for older fellas, Alan, how come you don't like it? Too bright for you?

Enjoy the Music. Trust your ears. Laugh at Folks Who Claim to Know it All.
