I love that ending, lol. So you don't have to turn on wifi or bluetooth on the camera? The reason I don't use apps w/ the camera is you have to turn those on and it eats up battery life. FYI, yes the remote is $7, but unless you have free shipping, the shipping costs more than the unit. So until I have more stuff to buy, can't buy this quite yet. HINT: Amazon gives you a link to this product in the recommended products on the page w/ the Sony branded one.

Is it morally right for Sony to charge $40 for a piece of technology that is hardly more complicated than a toaster just because it carries the Sony brand? Not sure they spent millions on R&D on this thing. It's like Adidas charging $120 plus tax for a Toronto FC jersey that in reality could be sold for $50 or less while still making them a profit.
