&lt;p&gt;FlatpanelsHD has a picture online of the remote now: &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Concept picture looks too much like a BL2 for my liking!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sometimes you can try too hard to be different, but then I am someone who likes the Beo4 and really dislikes the look and feel of the Beo5.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I agree Graham the Beo4 is still the remote i use today and will carry on using.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think the Beo5 is absolutly horrid and it looks like the cube will also be the same weird shape.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It does say at the bottom of the artical that B&amp;amp;o have not decided if they will ever make a product&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We say: Oh a new nice remote, where do I need it? (somewhat twisted argumentation chain anyone?)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I say: Don&amp;#39;t bring any new remotes unless they can be user programmed or function out of the box!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But this one is new.

&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#39;t know if the patented remote is the Joris Remote.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our discussion (Dutch) You can see in: http://forum.beoworld.org/forums/p/12924/95901.aspx#95901&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A little movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=181yeINhvWc&amp;amp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The remote is designed and made by Joris with no help from B&amp;amp;O. But he had a mentor from B&amp;amp;O. It was his graduation project for the Technical University of Eindhoven (NL).&amp;nbsp; After the test he had to go to Streuer. And he didn&amp;#39;t know what B&amp;amp;O would do with his idea/design.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I and the others loved it and it was simple to use. I realy hope it is the Joris remote.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is exactly the same. However the article is about a new remote, which makes it confusing.&lt;/p&gt;

 B&amp;amp;O from Innovation Camp 2008 &amp;ndash; not the new dice remote
