All you trekkies who picked up a new Toshiba HD DVD player and the Star Trek: The Original Series set to go along with your new toy, perk up your ears Vulcan style. You should already know the CBS-Toshiba Federation have a phaser-styled remote promotion just for you. A $70 value, the remote will operate any Toshiba HD DVD player (if you have a HD DVD player, chances are it's a Toshiba) with Trek-style lights (ooh) and sounds (ahh). It's the perfect way to stay "in character" as you plow through the 10 disc set. In a press release, Toshiba and CBS direct you to a website to claim your phaser; but get to it right away -- the promotion only runs until February 29, or until the limited supply of this Federation-issue sidearm run out.

It's novelty item though. I'd prefer it if they just dropped the SRP by that amount.

Only weird crap like this ST phaser remote would appeal to the strange and clueless HD-DVD farm....but fitting nonetheless.

And I guarantee you if it came out on Blu-ray you would be singing a different tune... >;>
