The graphics card also comes with ATI's RF remote, which is supposed to
be pretty good. I did consider at 15" Airpanel, but couldn't stretch
to
the extra grand at the mo. I'm thinking of having the Powermate near the
sofa and writing my own control software.
The idea of having the Bluetooth desktop is that I can have the
monitor/keyboard/mouse in the dining room for 'office' use and primarily
use the remote in the living room.
