A company called Messiah have just revealed pictures of an upcoming IR remote for the Playstation 3, which works by plugging the IR-receiver to the console via USB and pointing at it. The same IR receiver also doubles as a dock to recharge it’s internal battery.

The product will ship September 25th and you can preorder it now for $30. I never understood why the Playstation 3, or 2’s remote control had so many buttons, but I’m glad that someone in the industry is taking notes and bringing and much simpler and good looking device. If I had a Playstation 3, this is the remote I’d buy.
