And I like it. I placed the order in late May and USPS didn’t have any updates for over a week, but it finally got here. You can use it as a gyro-controlled mouse at the touch of one button which is quite convenient. I’ve only tested it on my normal desktop, but this should be the perfect remote for the media center PC. I just sat back and operated my computer so easily whilst totally relaxed, unlike using a regular keyboard and mouse.
Well worth the $15. I might just have to buy another (or two).

How is the programming interface and code library?

No idea. I just plugged it in and used it as a keyboard without issue. If you want to reprogram the buttons or set up a TV you have to have the corresponding remote. It looks pretty straightforward.

Ah that was my concern. I was hoping for a Logitech Harmony style. Not a universal replacement style flash the old remote to learn.

We use a backlit wireless keyboard for all media player duties. While not small, nor cheap, it does a great job. I think you can get them for about $65. It’s rechargable and battery life lasts at least a couple months of TV watching use, much more if the backlight is on more often.

This device is more about replacing the mouse and keyboard and controlling a Win10 PC rather than being a full-on programmable remote, a la Harmony. What it does it does exceptionally well.

No, but it’s made of heavy gauge, uh, plastic...

Where did you find it for $15?

It was on a website powered by stacksocial.com. Their price is normally $20 but when I ordered it there was a 20% discount sale going on . I ordered another one today, but the best coupon code I could find was 15% off.
