How do you turn off the remote control?

Lol you dumb ***! The TV has power but is turned off at the TV button. The remote cannot I repeat cannot turn the TV on no matter how hard you try.

Eg. A remote control car has a fully charged battery in it. It's receiving power. It also has a switch which is off. Now pick up the remote controller for car and turn it on. Now try and drive that car. How far did it go?

Lol what? I don't even need to use the remote to turn on my TV. With Bravia sync the TV turns on or off automatically. But there is still power going to the TV so it's not fully OFF

I'm on the forums as much as you but you are on here constantly about how much you hate MS. I don't care for them either way. Now I can tell you from both LCD televisions in my house that when plugged in power on at the wall but turn off at the TV. If I
pick up the remote and try and turn it on it won't. If I turn on the Xbox that is in the HDMI slot the TV also does not turn on. Why? Because I have not left the TV in stanby mode. And the example above states that it is waiting to be turned on by a remote
control which it cannot to unless you have turned it off via the remote control. How is that a BS response?

You can just switch the controller/remote off by pressing and holding the Xbox button until the light turns off.

The IR port was for syncing (and the remote)... So is the sensor in the Kinect (less the remote), they've said as much... Once synced the controller and "turned off" the Kinect as we can choose to do, what purpose does the sensor serve?

Oh and ours also randomly turns itself on as well. Turned off with the controller and was just sitting on the couch and the Xbox just turns on, no noises going on and the remote is still off. Creepy.
