    Windows Media remote + USB IR Receiver

    Anyone in the Darwin/Palmerston area have one of these laying around gathering dust?
    Needs to be the plug and play type, i.e no extra drivers required.

    Jay Car - about $20, designed for Windows Media Centre but also works media player ect, plug and play USB receiver, nothing to install. They are a bit sluggish but do the job, only thing is you need to point remote directly at receiver. remote also has back-lit buttons.

    Nice one!

    It's amazing what you can find at jay car, a must for the bargain hunter, plenty of computer bits and pieces.

    Throw a catalog in dunny and let the thinking begin.
