If you're just looking to turn on your TV at a pre-determined time(s),
several of the "trainable" IR remote controls have
timers just for this purpose.  Just train them and program the
timer and leave the remote pointing at the TV.  Not very hands-on
perhaps but pretty effective.  It's kinda handy since for VCR recording
sometimes since they sometimes have more programmable events than the
VCR.
