No Longer Tethered To My Computer [I've Got the Music In My Computer W/O]

by DrFaustus Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Aug 02 '02
Pros: A great way to control multimedia applications from anywhere in the room.
Cons: It let's me be far more lazy than I should be.
This review is part of Opalman's I've Got the Music in my Computer write-off, co-hosted by Lambchops and Opinionated3. All of us taking part are to write about some computer product that we use in conjunction with music. A list of all...

Add IR remote control to your USB computer

by Jaharmi , Aug 25 '01
Pros: Works as advertised, easy to install and set up, JVC remote compatible
Cons: Pricey, wish I could use it with my iPod
I picked up the Keyspan DMR at the Apple Store in Tyson's Corner, VA. I was passing through on a road trip, and had to stop at the place -- and having stopped there, felt compelled to buy something.

I chose the DMR because of it's cool-factor,...

Great remote for presenters!

by dtoombs , Sep 20 '01
Pros: Small, comfortable in the hand. USB interface is a big plus.
Cons: Wish it had a laser pointer built in.
As an author and a professional speaker, I often find myself speaking at large conferences several times a year. This is a situation where there's a few hundred people in a large room, with a very large projection screen set up.

A year ago or...

Keyspan Digital Media Remote

by lucie30 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Mar 31 '01
Pros: A great tool for the road warrior giving presentations from a laptop.
Cons: Somewhat expensive.
I have always felt somewhat constrained when giving a presentation using my laptop. Being tied to the keyboard just did not feel right. I much prefer to move around and be more animated. My sitting in front of the keyboard also limited the number of...

An essential piece to any computer system

by anthonykwon , Jul 01 '01
Pros: construction quality, nice buttons on remote, Amazing range/distance, can use different universal remote
Cons: Flat calculator style batteries.. should have used "AAA" or "AA"
The media remote is one of those products that catches your interest at the store, you pick it up to learn what it can do, and put it back down realizing that you can't justify spending $79 on a maybe "unnecessary" luxury item...

I went...

Works as promised

by Thoughtful , May 15 '00
Pros: Works exactly as promised.
Cons: Totally unnecessary.
The real question is: Are you so lazy that you need a remote for your computer? (For me, since I bought the thing, the answer was yes but read on).

FUNDAMENTALS: As the other review states (see yanokwa's review), the remote is simple to set...

Great product

by mastercha , Nov 17 '01
Pros: Good range, compact, easy to use
Cons: software could be better, pricey, short cable
After buying a new computer, a dvd-rom, a tv card and decent speakers, the only thing that my computer/entertainment system lacked was a remote. It was bugging the hell out of me that I had to get up from my bed and use the mouse or keyboard to pause a...

Lazziness at it's best

by hpvamp , Jan 29 '01
Pros: Works as expected, multi-purpose applications
Cons: Bug with iTunes
Not worth the $79 when if first came out, I jumped at the opportunity to buy it for $49 at the Apple Store. The remote works like a charm, and I am able to do my powerpoint presentations remotely and use my computer like a jukebox, playing MP3s. My...

Rio works awsome for mac

by babypro , Sep 09 '00
Pros: small, backlite, easy, good sound
Cons: none
on my birthday I was given the choice of either a portable MP3 player or a CD burner. I choose the portable MP3 player because it's smaller and it'seasy to use and it's faster then burning CD's. I can also get much better sound quality from my Rio 500...

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the PC

by channer , Oct 15 '01
Pros: Compact, easy to use, fully customizable.
Cons: Was pricey, but it has been reduced. Watch batteries instead of AAA.
The Keyspan Digital Media Remote is almost a necessity for me. I love to listen to mp3's when I am away from my desk, I have a tv-tuner on my PC, and I like being able to control DVD's from the comfort of my couch. There are not many IR remotes out...
