Nope, just tried again just to be sure I was not doing something stupid, and 
I'm definitely nhot.  I trippled clicked the menu key on the remote.  All I 
hear are the little bell bloof sounds 3 times and it saying in main menu, top 
movies.

I don't get it.  Yeah, the firmware's totally up to date, so, yeah, I'm 
baffled.  This really is somewhat bizarre, or am I missing something here.

By tripple clicking, I basically am saying Im doing like you would on an IPod 
or IPhone with the home key.

the blind can use it?  Is there a key combination that is used to get the unit 
to talk?
