Maybe clicker is an eastcoast thing.  I am from Florida and everyone I know says clicker.  Here in COlorado where I live now they say remote.  Kind like people saying pop instead of soda or shopping cart instead or buggy or cart.  I think it depends on where you are in the country or even the world..lol

I call it the remote. My step brother calls it a changer. Remote should be the universal word for it. Changer and clicker just don't do justice to the great piece of technology that is the remote.
