You might need to cut'n'paste that link if it gets wrapped in your mail
reader though. There's at least 1 remote there on the first page.

And best of all, the German seller called ace-x
is still
selling brand new
remotes and rodents for the CDTV, as well as new
A4000T motherboards
(unpopulated) and stacks of Amiga floppy drives. I'd double-check his
username but my ISP is being shit to say the least :( I can't
even get to
local UK sites ATM....is this the beginning of
Demon's downfall?
