The RF Remote for Windows Vista is a sleek and powerful RF remote control designed specifically for use with Vista's Media Center multimedia software. It provides more range, convenience and flexibility than infrared remotes.Unlike an infrared remote, this RF remote does not require line of sight to the RF receiver. This allows you to manage Media Center from more areas within the room or even from other areas of your house.Since the RF signal works through walls and furniture, you have more flexibility in locating the PC that will be used to run Media Center. For example, you can place the PC inside an entertainment center cabinet or within an AV closet and still easily control Media Center with the remote.

Summary: Good price but poor range & responsiveness
Comment: Although the price is good for this RF Windows Media Center remote I can't recommend buying one. The response time between pushing a button and the function happening is EXTREMELY long. Sometimes it seemed like the computer was frozen but actually it was VMC receiving a backlog of commands from the remote! I also don't like the fact this remote doesn't have lighted buttons. It is really something that you use all the time but don't think about until you don't have it.

Summary: Almost perfect
Comment: The remote works better than I expected with media center. It works for media player too, once media player is open. The only quibble I have is that there is a button you can press to make the computer sleep; something weird happens when I take the computer back out of sleep mode--I have to exit sleep mode twice for some reason. Hardly a huge deal though. Otherwise perfect. I like the RF characteristic--works well throuout my appt.

Summary: Does what it said it would do
Comment: This remote worked right out of the box and though the wall like it said it was going to do. I liked that I did not have to load any software for it too. The RF remotes are really the wave of the future. I noticed on other reviews they didn't like the fact that this remote did not completely control other programs than Windows MediaCenter, I assume that would next remote on the market, if it's not already out there (one that controls all PC functions). Then again I'm really only using this remote to control MediaCenter and Windows Media Player. For the price I paid this remote is way cheaper than the Harmony remotes that are not RF. I'm using Vista 32 bit instead of the 64 bit.

Summary: Pretty Awsome
Comment: The remote worked right away with my 32 bit vista media center. Just plugged it in and in seconds it worked for everything on media center. I shopped for a few days looking at remotes with an ir blaster. Glad didn't buy one. The reviews said you have to be less than 4 ft away. This remote works from rooms away. Over all, It's pretty awesome!!
