Canadian online stores w/ compatible remote?
I have been testing SageTV for a week or so now and I am very impressed with it! Previously I have tried Windows MCE 2005... while I found it intuitive at first I found out that it lacked a lot of features... a problem that SageTV doesn't have! So I think I am ready to purchase SageTV but I would also like a remote. I was wondering if anyone knew of a canadian online store that sold a remote that worked flawlessly with SageTV... I would like to purchase it from a canadian store so that the shipping will be less and there won't be any customs fees. I would then be able to simply download the purchased SageTV.
Thanks in advance, Michel Last edited by michelkenny; 05-09-2005 at 07:02 PM.

Cool, thanks Gog. I didn't even think of checking Future Shop or any brick stores... I guess I thought that these remotes were strictly an online store thing. The Firefly was actually the remote I was already looking for.

That remote does look nice but I just can't bring myself to spend $150 on a remote

I noticed the other day that Future Shop (at least here in Burlington, ON) has Hauppage remotes behind the computer counter. I forget the model, but they looked more elaborate than the one that comes with a PVR-250.
They also were stocked right up on PVR-250's as well as the USV WinTV models.
