Look here (http://www.procameragear.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/46_48/products_id/422)
I am assuming that you were asking for a wireless remote for your camera. If not please specify what you are hoping to do.

Plus I have Nikon and C6/C8 cables, so you can buy the remote set, then just buy cables to switch to other bodies.

Yea something like that, just want something so i can take photos without touching my camera (reduce shake on my crappy tripod).

These (http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.28508%7Er.31501031) are newer, and also double as a flash trigger. They get great reviews, operate at 2.4ghz, and are cheap. I got 2 on the way to give a shot. For $30 you get 2 items in 1.

That looks like something similar to the Phottix Strato units, but Phottix has discontinued those shortly after they came out with them. Not exactly sure why. Please let us know how they work and what kind of cables they have.

I have 3 of the Phottix Plato units left, and extra cables for all Canon/Nikon makes should you decide to use the remote on other bodies.

There is a rather long thread on here on these:

People are saying that they come with an assortment of cables, and people have said they work from 100+ yards. It seems the key to reliable wireless is the 2.4ghz band (it seems to be what all the "name brand" wirless triggers use) I will post a review when I get them, but I have researched them and have not found a single negative review of them.

That is what the Platos are as well, 2.4ghz. The Platos also have 2 way communication so you know when your remote is out of range or not. I look forward to the review.
