Ricavision Sideshow Remote

I've been waiting on sideshow remotes since CES. From what I can tell, they're all taking their sweet time. Only Asus and and some digital picture frame manufacturer are shipping sideshow devices.

Which is not a remote control, just a display device, right? I'm also looking at the new Philips ones. They look good, but i'd like bluetooth instead of IR. I did have the microsoft IR keyboard and remote, and i wasn't happy with performance.
Thanx!

Do you mean the Asus laptop? If so, then not quite. It has all the capabilities of the Ricavision remote, its just attached to the laptop so no need for the bluetooth. I agree about the bluetooth over the IR. The MCE remote is pretty good, by keyboards have been hit and miss for me. I'm using the Logitech MX3200 combo and I'm very happy with it.

I'm more excited about this Interlink remote:

I just wish the remotes weren't so big. Oh well, the price we pay for the screen.
 
Microsoft remote looks nice. I've always liked microsoft when it comes to ergonomics. My favorite keyboards and mice are always microsoft. I like that remote, and the sideshow feature. I've got my htpc connected to my projector, so it'd be very convenient if i didnt have to turn on the projector for playing an album when i get home.
