UK superstore Tesco had TV's with adverts a few years back. I used to walk round the store with my WindowsMobile devices with IR and turn them off.

Always hated advertosing.

A FOAF connected a TV-b-gone to an array of high-power LEDs, enough to turn off all the TVs in a large shop from inside a canvas bag outside the entrance.

I would have liked to borrow that and go for a walk ;)
