Any recommendations for a LARGE buttoned easy to use remote. Or at least have the buttons widely spaced.
I'm looking for one for a handicapped person who can only use one hand and often presses 2 buttons at the same time with his thumb.
Has to control a TV, VCR and DVD player.
I looked at the Radio Shack 15-1991 but it doesn't appear to be able to control a DVD player.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I don't have any experience with the remotes mentioned above, but it will give you a good place to start. You can also try a search on "senior" or "large buttons" on this forum, there might be others.

I am looking for a remote for my elderly grandmother who really doesn't need any thing fancy. I am looking for one that has big buttons that include only the #'s, channel up and down, volume up and down and power, maybe a couple of others but the vcr controls are not necessary for she does not have one. Does a remote like this exist and where can I obtain one?

Thank you.
