It's a widget called TVBGone. Edit the icon when it appears on the desktop and then select your area. You can only choose Europe or US. Update the desktop or save, then find a TV and point your IR in the direction of TV IR sensor.

Press the icon and it times down... In my experience within a few seconds it has switched off the TV and has instantly annoyed a lot of people.

Aaaah, the power of my Nokia N900.

:-) I bet you are itching to try it at your local pub / sports bar... hehehe!

theres a whole selection of remotes you can download from the database, the problem is they're all user created and many haven't been created that well (to the point that they dont function) although many do work its all pot luck. you can edit the buttons and themes, also theres an option to create your own remote and upload to the database, but since there doesn't seem to be any way i can find to enter new irda codes other than using the ones from remotes already in the database, its not really useful.
