"LCD or liquid crystal display technology is no longer being produced. It has been supplanted by OLED technology."
That's great information to have--thank you. I'm no electronics expert (my ZW reference obviously proves that), but I have to believe there is still a way to manufacture a designated remote, for which there appears to still be demand. If the demand weren't there, threads like this wouldn't continue to come up. I'm pretty sure the manufacturers would find a way to make it happen if sales declined as a result.
