What's your favorite remote?

So the harmony 880 is very very good. But what about the receiver? You can use it with the mce receiver (effectively replacing the remote control in that kit)?

Thanks,

Yes. It will emulate any IR remote so it can be used with Hauppauge or MCE receivers.

Thanks, that makes sense as it is a programmable remote.

My PVR 500 didn't come with a remote or receiver - my Firefly is a RF remote....

So - does anyone have any recommendations on a good IR receiver?

mce remote and receiver is the cheapest and best option
dont waste your time buying anything else

Anyone use the Gyration remote. It looks like it could be good since it is also a mouse.
