That was my guess, WRT the Blau controller. It would be cooler if it was the track changer for an 8-track unit. Just seemed odd to have only one button for multiple functions. "You know, it really does suck to have to reach all the way to the dash to FF/RW. I'll just keep this handy wired remote in my lap, or attached to the handy clip --- ON MY DASH."

I have a great respect for the self-destruct unit. I will keep my distance until others chime in and there is general agreement regarding its purpose in life.
