Do Vista MCE Remotes work for SageTV on XP?

Has anyone had any experience using a Vista MCE remote with SageTV on XP? The reason I ask is that I'm looking for an inexpensive remote for Sage on my XP machine, but the StreamZap apparently has some driver problems that causes it to randomly stop responding and force reboots. Someone on the above thread recommended buying a MCE remote from Newegg, but those remotes are mostly for Vista Media Center.

I read somewhere that Vista MCE remotes don't work with XP MCE -- this makes sense, but they don't say whether the Vista remotes could still work with SageTV on XP. The remote I'm interested in is this one, which is a Vista MCE remote that has learning capabilities (!), so I can program it to control my other devices. It also fits nicely within my budget (I'm looking for something less than $40).

Thanks very much in advance for your advice!
