remote device for cable box

[Bruinsrme]

here is one for ya,

I picked up a part time job to pay for my HT stuff with a electronically challenged contractor who has to deal with electronically challenged customers both with zero foresight.

So these people wanted a plasma display place right about the fire place, No consideration for the cable box.

The question - Is there some small device that can be mounted just under the display that can act as a relay for the cable box?

any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
