I haven't tried it as a Slim remote, but I have used the device. I suspect that the screen would be rather small for a remote, or you'd just be doing a LOT of scrolling :) The screen is very high resolution, but it's still physically not nearly as large as a 770. If you can, pick up a recent Series 60 devices (like the N70) in a Nokia shop and see what you think about it.

If there's enough interest, I might be able to get someone at work to loan me an N80 and I can take some screenshots of what a Slim interface looks like on it.

okay, so it doesn't have touchscreen, but what does everyone think
about this device for a v handy remote control compared to a standard
pda/nokia 770/psp solution?
