0Mirando más allá de la distancia-teclado Boxee

Durante mucho tiempo he estado buscando el ideal HTPC mando a distancia. Quiero una distancia bastante estándar, pero con un teclado QWERTY en la parte posterior, o dentro de un flip / deslizarse fuera parte. He estado siguiendo las opciones de [int­link id=“46” type=“post”]un artículo de Jan-2010[/intlink], y, finalmente, ordenó a mí mismo un Boxee remotas hace unos meses. La Boxee es un excelente teclado inalámbrico, pero desgra-tu-damente, Boxee han optado por ir la "ruta de Apple" (aka callados) en el lado no-QWERTY. Hay un total de 7 botones, non of which is a power but­ton. There is also no “back up” type but­ton. This makes the boxee pretty use­less for Media Cen­ter 7.I decided that if I was going to get yet anoth­er remote, I wanted it to offer addi­tion­al fea­tures, as well as address­ing the prob­lems with the boxee. The 2 most use­ful options are to be pro­gram­mable (es decir. uni­ver­sal) and to fea­ture an RF com­muni­ation to the PC, so it can be tucked away out of sight. The remote I was most inter­ested in is the Philips Home Con­trol Dual / uWand, but I can­’t find any­where to buy that in the Reino Unido.  I’ve seen some pos­it­ive reviews of the Motorola NYXTablero and loc­ated a retail­er that ships to the Reino Unido.  £40 isn’t cheap for a remote con­trol, but the nyx­Board does offer both RF and uni­ver­sal­ity, as well as clearly hav­ing the required but­tons. I’ve ordered one, and am optim­ist­ic it will do the job. Its just a shame its a bit chunky, one of the nice things about the boxee remote is how slim and slick look­ing it is.
