I have found the perfect remote control for Boxee on the mac. I am currently testing a multitude of different control solutions but the Logitec Dinovo works perfect. I paid just £70 for this little device and wit a little tweaking using ControllerMate it works perfect.

Here is a link to my HTPC and a pic or two of the device.

I glad you say this... I have been look at the diNovo Mini (picture (http://www.mrgadget.com.au/catalog/images/logitech_dinovo_mini_hands.gif)) for some time now.. I was at little unsure how it would work with Boxee..

Is it easy to navigate ? would you recomend this over a "normal" remote control?

yeah its great, works mostly out of the box but with a little extra customising using controllermate it is 100% functional. And im not even using a proper mac.

Cool, thanks for the heads up. I've been looking at replacing my Apple remote for a while now.

Are you using the "diNovo Mini™ (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboards/keyboard/devices/3848&cl=us,en) or the diNovo Edge™, Mac® Edition (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboards/keyboard/devices/4429&cl=us,en)

I don't see anything in your .Mac site that has anything todo with a diNova... :(

How about a direct link so that people don't have to hunt though your .Mac account.
