ok, so the above is from the mcubed site, it says native mediaportal support. I assume it mimmicks the official microsoft remote.

Are you guys aware of this remote? If i buy it, will it work without any HID, event ghost faffing about? I assume I will just have to tick MCE remote support in mediaportal?

Also will mptray recognise this as an "MCE remote" and the green button will launch MP without the need for any event ghost faffing?

My media centre remote has just given up on me, so I'm looking at the alternatives. It does look like it mimics the microsoft remote, would be nice to know if it definelty works before buying one.

It does mimic the Vista MCE remote, so if you have Vista there should be no problems.

Also, this thread may make it even more useful
