    I just received 3 of these buggers.
    Damn they are small...and nice too.

    They do turn on the HTPC from standby/hibernation.

    They also support changing x10 channel (1-16) - useful when u have multiple remotes.

    The only problem for people running multiple htpc rigs with those remote controls, are that any of the remotes will turn on any of the HTPCs in your household.

    Not too well thought out.
    Probably a hardware design glitch not fixable.

    My workaround is to use the eventghost/wakeOnLan hack and then disable powermanagement on the USB root hub.
