Re: [mythtv-users] Wireless Keyboard Questions -- Belkin MediaPilotworth it?
I have the MediaPilot and it is great. I keep the base station in a closet, with some of my other components and there is never an issue with events. The keyboard/mouse aspect work Out-Of-The-Box on my FC3 system. The only thing I have never setup is the IR remote control aspect. That needs Windows software I never got around to testing. My Harmony remote does everything I need. I bought mine on buy.com. Only downside of the keyboard is the plastic squeaks. The battery life is very very good as well. I put it in the charger maybe once a month.

I'm curious about the Media Pilot as well. I posted to the list about a month ago, but got no feedback. It looks like a nice setup - rechargeable and all. I bought an IFree/Globlink keyboard with integrated trackball about a year ago. It is horrible, has a reliable range of about 3 feet. If you do order the Belkin Media Pilot, coupon code '12345' on the belkin.com site will give you a nice discount ;) - Abre On 1/2/06, Mike Grusin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Anyone have any recommendations for a small wireless keyboard, preferably with built-in pointer? I've been considering this one: http://ogeek.com/product_info.php?products_id=116 but I have NOT confirmed that it will work with Linux (love those support droids). The above company has a few other models as well (I'm not affiliated and have never ordered from them).
