alternative 3g remotes?

I love my 30 gig iPod. I don't like the remote: it's difficult to use if you're not looking right at it, and the clip isn't particularly effective. Does anyone know of a third-party remote that works with the 3g iPods?

(I'm looking for wired remotes, not infrared: this would be for jogging, riding subway, etc.)

All I know of is:

1) Wired - Apple remote

2) IR - NaviPod remote

3) RF - RemoteRemote

What I'd like to see is a Bluetooth one (receiver), set up so I can control my iPod with my cellphone.

I'd love to see a third party market for wired remotes. Something similar to what comes with minidisc players would be great.

This Aiwa remote is cool

Many say that the sony remote is good too, here's a pic.
