Sony's Apple Remote by Jason Roebuck

Nope, it's not by Apple. But this remote by Sony looks just like a granny smith. This remote attracts us because it looks like a green apple, not a remote control...

The apples come in a set and the greens vary slightly on each remote. Each member of the household can program one to match their media needs. Set them on the included "fruit bowl" to recharge. Those slight variations in color make these look almost natural. We'd throw some granny smiths onto the charger, too, to camouflage the remotes.

Uh, you realize this is just a concept, and doesn't actually exist, right?

Sorry, kind of ugly! Who conceived this? The charger looks kind of ... intrusive. The apples don't look enough like apples or look too much like apples. Why did they need to look like apples? Maybe someone would like it, because it goes with their design and colors. Oh dear, it will possibly be iconic someday? It's a little out there for me, but wouldn't chuck it all if it would appeal - no pun intended - to someone else! I'm sure this is just right for someone.

It's a remote... with one button on it.
