xPCgear.com has the Infrared Vista MCE Remote Control and Receiver For Vista Home Premium and Vista Ultimate (Vista Crtified) for $35 with free shipping. A single remote control gives you the freedom to access your entertainment from anywhere in the room.
The Media Center software is much better than the software that comes with any of the cards. None of the remotes that come with the cards will control Media Center. They will work only with the software that comes with the card.
It works OK but is pricey. There's one that is $10 cheaper at the same site but doesn't always have free shipping.
a vista remote? vista doesn't DO anything though
Shouldn't that be Black Mesa? I heard that Barney was using one of these in the lab.
If you buy a tuner card the remotes usually come with it.

I am looking to get one of these now that I have Media Center working. MC is nice but man it takes a lot more resources than Beyond TV.
average price
Does it comes with a usb ir receiver?
It does come with a receiver.
Cool thing if you use your pc as entertainment unit.
