You Know You Want One!

Trust me. If you have a home theater PC, YOU WANT THIS!No more bulky mouse and keyboard cluttering up your coffee table.No more switching on the light to find the volume button.No more keyboard sliding off your knees in the middle of your favorite video game.GET ONE, OKAY?! JUST GET ONE!UPDATE: OK, so after 8 months I've decided that the three things I thought would make this the absolute perfect mini-multimedia-controller (air-mouse, microphone and back-light) turned out to be it's Achilles Heel(s). Trying to use the air mouse is like trying to balance a bowling ball on a footstool. You have to almost put the keyboard in your mouth for the microphone to pick up anything; and having no way to disable it means you have to turn the thing off whenever you're not using it, otherwise it will be dead the next time you pick it up. And forget about using the back-light if you want to get any real time out of a charge! Works great if you keep it plugged in (though that kinda defeats the purpose). Also, battery not replaceable, so I guess I just throw it away when it quits holding a charge. Had to knock-off a star from my original review because of all of the above. Still, it's only one star!

Pros
  • Computer Accessories & Peripherals
Cons
  • The buttons are not well-constructed and may feel flimsy or cheap
