mad catz PS2 mini DVD remote?

I saw this remote I was wondering if anybody has used this before and has any reviews on this product.

It seems pretty cool because it's really small (about the size of a credit card). It's double sided, and it's a dvd/vcr/ps2 remote. It's also got pass through.

I have one. At least mine looks exactly like the picture, but I'm not sure about it being universal. I don't use it much at all, since I have a regular DVD player on each TV. Luckily, I got it free along with some more useful things when I bought my PS2 black friday (extra controller and extensions for the controllers so I can play on my couch).

I guess it does the job, but it's nothing fancy--since I'm not used to playing DVDs on my PS2, I can never remember what the square triangle and circle do.

I don't really know what they mean by double-sided--in fact, most of the info listed (universal, etc.) doesn't seem accurate to me (unless it's not really the one in the picture).

Mine has a battery in it. They probably meant you don't need to get a new battery (it's a weird little round battery that I suspect will last a really long time). You can kind of see it in the picture, actually, it's in the bottom left corner of the remote (next to the madcatz label).

It comes out really easily, that is actually one of the cooler features, it has this little swivel out battery holder that locks in place, but very easy to open.
