I could be wrong but it seems clear that the Intel bugs have been passed up the ladder to the Intel dev guys and they are happy with their current information and (hopefully) working on it.

Also, while I don't know anything about flirc....the remote found on section 2.3 of this wiki:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Lis...e_controls

simply emulates keyboard commands and presents no problems with the chromebox. It is dirt cheap and works great with harmony remotes. The receiver is kind of ugly/outdated but it isn't all that hard to hide somewhere and has pretty good line of site.

I probably wouldn't be happy about pulling my expensive flirc (if I had one) to put in some cheap chinese remote/receiver but sometimes a couple bucks is better than a few hours, you know?
