Of course it is - it controls absolutely every aspect of the HTPC from a remote location, wirelessly.

But that said, if it's purely remote form-factor you're concerned about, I also use the ATI Remote Wonder Plus in combination with the MS7000 keyboard. There are plugins available for most popular media players, including one that can reconfigure all of the keys to send keystrokes instead of media commands (for use with XBMC, called RWKeyFactory), and it works perfectly with EventGhost and Girder if those are your choices too. Plus,, it's and RF device, not IR, so range is great, and physical obstacles are no issue:

Just got Zotac Zbox ID40 hw and stuffed Dharma in there ontop of Win7_x64. Works great, but Dinovo Mini's specials keys are pain in the ass.. Works though ok, but I'm trying to get those special play,stop etc.. keys to work with Dharma.. mouse/pad works.
edit: special keys actually works with music / divx.. DVD not, so this is mapping problem only... keyboard.xml.

Has anybody managed to get all the keys to work with xbmc ?

If not is there any other small keyboard/mouse all-in-ones that people would recommend ?

Thought I would bump this thread as I am building a win7 Ult / XBMC HTPC and the last thing I need to get is this ! But it's pointless if it still doesn't work fully.

You can use the program Uberoptions. It allows you to change the media buttons.
