Not what you want, but kind of related. I had success using a PS3 BD
remote with freevo. Some time ago I had that idea that using bluetooth
for remote controllers should be a good thing, as you can have a good
range and dont have to point the controller to the receptor device.
Unfortunatly, the few ones that I could find isnt cheap, until now.
Last week I saw a bluetooth remote to be used with Playstation 3 on a
local video game shop. After googling[1] for a while I decided to buy
one. And now I can remote controle my living room freevo from the
bedroom :-).
