Why in the world has nobody invented a paging device for remotes, like most cordless phones have built-in? Seriously. Just something small enough to slip into the battery compartment or something, then you keep the paging base by the TV. Push button, remote goes beep.

You can always rig one up yourself using one of those key ring pagers that beep when you whistle. The trick is finding one small enough that you can tape it to the underside of the remote without it being too intrusive. Or if it can fit in the battery slot, all the better! This also removes the need for a separate paging device.
I lose my remote every so often. It's the same fate that happens to just about anything that's not nailed down or tethered to anything else. Sooner or later you've got to go on the "quest" to find it, and your reward is the dust-bunny sopped apparatus, and you just *hope* the batteries still work.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
