Hi guys, my first post here.
I've had a bit of a dig around the forums but haven't been able to locate the answer I was looking for so I thought I'd ask here (and maybe on the One for All forum).
I'm currently building a new HTPC and would like to be able to control it via my One for All 6 in 1 (generation II) Kameleon. I not long ago brought the Kameleon and absolutely love it and don't want to have to give it up to be able to control my HTPC. I'm not a great fan of Microsoft and similarly don't want to have to purchase the MCE remote.
I don't currently have an infrared receiver attached to my system and was wondering if anyone could perhaps recommend one that will work with my Kameleon and my HTPC.
Hopefully someone out there has had some prior experience in this area.
Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide.

I use a USB-UIRT and and more than happy with it. There are cheaper solutions, including building your own, if your on a tight budget. http://www.usbuirt.com/Here's a list I put together when I first began researching pc IR control: [Link: htpcnews.com]and another thread discussing the differences between the usb-uirt and the IRMan.

Thanks Treetop. I'm looking into it right now.
Geez, a few of those are a bit pricey!
