it has everything i need, remote control and keyboard on the same remote... but i'm not sure if everything will work with XBMC under windows and "out of the box" ?

Says that i will have to remap with "intelliremote". Does that means that none of the buttons will work until i configure them with some weird software?

Anybody on this forum is using TiVo Slide remote ??

I just started using this remote with XBMC. With my Windows 7 64bit system I was able to map all the buttons using Eventghost. Its pretty easy once you install Eventghost and pair the remote the logger shows the HID codes and you just drag and drop to the XBMC function you want the button to perform. Only thing I have not been able to master is waking the system from sleep using the remote but I believe this is more of a bluetooth issue than with the remote. I am currently working on getting it working with my Ubuntu 11.10 system which is proving more difficult. I can get the bluetooth to connect and the keyboard function works fine but I haven't gotten the remote part to work yet. I have been trying some suggestions on this thread http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...tivo+slide.
