When one of my Macs arrived with a remote, I downloaded several trial versions of different utilities to find ways to use it and wasn't impressed and gave up. I then heard a MacCast podcast with the guy from HDTV podcast, who raved about remote buddy and explained some of the things I could do, so I bought the full version and put some time in to play with it. WOW. The amazing thing about Remote Buddy is that is finds all kinds of files and offers them up so elegantly that I put all my other solutions in a drawer and now use Remote Buddy for everything. I use EyeTV, as I have a Mac Mini and a 20" monitor as my television in my bedroom. I even hardwired a USB touchpad across the room and onto my bedside table so that I could shut down the computer when I was ready to hit the sack. Remote buddy makes watching all my video content and running my X10 automated house so easy! Remote Buddy is now on my ten best list. Buy it. Play with it! Only suggestion is that they hurry up and get a PDF manual to download and print out.
