New Big Button Remote to be released for DIRECTV customers

DIRECTV will be releasing new remote controls late this summer. Among those released will be a Big Button Remote that will be helpful to customers who have a difficult time seeing and/or using DIRECTV's current remote controls and need only basic remote functionality. No advanced interactive features will be available on this remote, even if the customer's receiver has interactive features. The Big Button Remote will be available on June 28 for $20. Customers will be able to buy the remote at retail or by contacting DIRECTV.
