Odd Sharp remote

[crt89]

Very interesting remote! Looks like it would be awkward to use, as the writing on it is 90 degrees to the transmitter beam and would require holding it sideways.

Looks like it has an emitter on the end and on the side. That way you can also hold it like a game controller.

We sold a bunch of those (just ran across the box for one in the warehouse). They came with two remotes; one to lose, one to use. Their thinking was that a remote was too easy to lose in the kitchen (many of these sets were white in color and marketed as kitchen TVs) and if at least one of them had a parking space, it would stay with the TV.
