(I know I posted this somewhere else, but I'm not sure which forum fits).
Hi everyone,
As the title suggests, I'm probably looking for something that doesn't even exist. But I'll give it a try anyways:
I recently bought an HTPC (doesn't have IR), the case: ANTEC 2400 NSK. I also bought LG 5000 37" LCD.
Now I'm looking for a way to control both the TV and the HTPC using only 1 remote. At this point I should mention that I don't care about turning my HTPC on from scratch. I'm fine with being only able to wake it from standby or hibernation. I know otherwise it gets more difficult.
On top of having a remote with activates the HTPC and TV I want it to have some sort of mouse function, i.e. trackball, touchpad or whatever.
Preferably the remote comes with an IR USB receiver or even better so a non-IR solution such as Bluetooth or some other radio solution.
I ask at this point: DOES THIS EXIST?
Now asking for all this PLUS a remote with an integrated keyboard is pushing it... but who knows, maybe it does exist too?
I have been looking and reading everywhere. The remote-business is very confusing for me. It would be nice if you could help me.
Thanks :)

I am controlling my HTPC, Receiver and TV from one URC remote and MSC-400.
If you are running Windows Media Center, mouse is not needed, you can do everything in MC using a standard keyboard. MSC-400 can emulate pc keyboard via USB.
