Abstract

An apparatus including a removable user interface (RUI) (486), a user input (498), a controller (484), memory having a library of wireless codes (496), and controller-independent storage medium (CISM) (488) containing software relating to a media event. The CISM (488) is a separate component from the controller (484). The RUI (486) is removably attached to the controller (484), and the controller (484) includes a program for reading the software that determines one or more appropriate codes to communicate to a host system (482) in response to actuation of the user input. The RUI (486) may include a book (516) and the RUI (486) may or may not include as part thereof the CISM (488). The user input may be a stylus, or a position sensor actuated by proximity of a selector like a finger. The CISM (488) may include accompanying media content (514).
