    I just got done looking through 3 pages of threads to see if there was anything on remotes and gave up, So curious to find out. I'm getting the Asus c90 but I'd like to have a remote to use - like the hp's would have with the old media center in xp. I don't know if this is possible with the Asus c90 on vista premium, I'm sure it's possible on vista premium, but the c90. If there is something I can buy that'd be great.. and while I am here, I might as well ask. How are these prices for keyboards.

    I have bluetooth.. Umm, about the expresscard slot.. I don't know, because it doesn't say anythign about it in the specifications.. so, help me out there? And it is a little bit more expensive, dont you think? :err:

    Well what I should be asking is, what benefits does that have compared to the Microsoft one, OTHER than size - Other than 20 feet compared to 30 feet. Which I don't think will matter since i'm not gonna access it that far away anyway
