Nyko introduces BluWave PS3 remote, ships PS3 Charge Base


If you're wary of spending $25 on Sony's Bluetooth remote control -- after all, it won't work with your old-fashioned infrared devices -- then you may want to consider Nyko's BluWave remote for the PlayStation 3. Instead of using pesky radio waves, it uses good old-fashioned infrared (not 'blu') light waves to tell that little USB dongle what it wants your PlayStation 3 to do ... like "INITIATE BLU-RAY DISC PLAYBACK." Unfortunately, this device doesn't appear to be a universal remote so, like Sony's product, this is PS3 only. But at $20, you'll save enough to buy yourself a sandwich.

Nyko also announced that they're shipping their PS3 controller Charge Base for $40, good for those of you with an aversion to recharging cables. We understand.
