Keyspan RF Remote for Front Row - Remote control - radio

This thing allows you to utilize a remote control to control front row running on older macs. Now that Leopard includes front row for everyone (no hacks required), it's a useful add-on. This has allowed me to use my old iMac G4 as a 'media center PC'...

I wouldn't buy this to replace a functioning remote on a Mac that supported the Apple remote

In every technical sense, this device works as advertised. I've not had any functional problems

If, like me and most Mac users, you have a certain taste for aesthetics, I promise you this device will offend all your senses. It is made of el-cheapo plastic that lacks the luster of Apple-quality products. The tactile feedback of the buttons is icky...

it does mostly what they say it does

if your using tiger, make sure u already have the built in IR reciever or investigate the various hax for running FR w/o the apple remote - leopard works fine, appears to work in linux and windows but might not be useful without a key remapper

Using on my G4 Powerbook 15"" with 10.5. Works great.

I hate having a large dongle sticking out the side of my laptop, but there's no other option.
