    I had an HP pavillion which came with a little controller where I could turn the volume up or down, change tracks and a couple of other things which I loved. Is there anyway I can get one for my 8130?

    I have not seen one specifically made for these units. I have seen some generic versions with a USB IR plugin, but that might be a little big for what you are looking for.

    I was lucky enough to buy a few Logitech Media Play mice a few years ago which are simply amazing.

    Volume +/-, Track forward/reverse, Play/Pause, Media button, and a ton more controls on the mouse itself which can be used as a normal mouse and also held like a remote but I am used to using all the media controls while doing regular mousing.

    The only ones I can find now are $125+ on ebay/amazon. I wish I had bought more at the time.
