FWIW, I bought a serial IR receiver off eBay from a guy in the UK which was cheap (about 5 quid), simple to set up and works a treat. Once you've done that you can use just about anmy remote you like. I can send you his eBay URL if you like as I think he has ones on there all the time. PS - if you think you have poor choice of remotes in the UK, you should try living in Australia! Regards, Phill
