The Reclus family solution...

was to decide we would leave each remote on top of the appliance it controlled so we could always locate it. When we need to power up, down, or change modes, we simply walk over to the device and do it, and replace the remote in its designated spot. What a concept!

Side benefit: it cuts down on annoying channel surfing.
