[mythtv-users] wireless keyboard/mouse combo or other solution?

Would not hesitate to recommend the IBM Wireless Navigator Pro.  Fairly small and light (not as small as the Gyration keyboard, but on the other hand this is a full-size keyboard minus the numpad, not a laptop keyboard), with an integrated pointing device probably similar to the Airboard mentioned earlier.  Unlike the Airboard, though, the IBM is RF - which means it doesn't need to be pointing directly at the receiver.  Some people like IR for an HTPC because, as was pointed out, you can often get a regular remote to work with the same receiver, so consider that.  But RF keyboards are generally more reliable and less annoying to work with than IR keyboards.
