An interesting find on the CDTV Remote
« on: November 25, 2008, 06:38:20 PM »
Ok, So You all know I got my CDTV last month, and I ordered a NOS CDTV remote from RED (Thanx RED! :-D ) for it.
I just got it in this morning(along with all my other goddies from RED (he is like Santa!) and I noticed that this one was different from my original.
I checked CDTV.org and did a quick google search and I could not find any info on different remotes made for it.
The difference is small, the power button is swapped with the mouse/joy button, and on the second, the mouse/joy button is a switch, not a button.
the back sticker shows the first (with buttons) as model number 252594-01
the second logically has
252594-02

Not sure if anyone cares or if this has been documented before, but I though it was interesting.



I have Amiga stuff for sale at http://amigalounge.com. You can follow my builds there also.

I didn't get that far yet when I scanned the pictures- I had just basically pulled it out of the plastic, didn't even through batteries in yet. :lol:

I wonder why so many? Doesn't make sense if there isn't the CDTVs to go with them in existence.

Too bad there is not that many keyboards to go with them. :-D
