Sorry for the delay replying on this one! For reference, the first one I
bought, which *didn't* work:
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001M56DI0
The second one, which *did* work:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180878754211&ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:US:3160
If that eBay link doesn't work, the item which worked was labelled:
"HP 5070-2584 Media Center Remote Control IR Reciever w/Blaster Cable
438585-001"
HTH,
Cheers,
Geoff
