I use this. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...-_-Product

Its a full sized keyboard, which is nice. It has a low profile so I can slide it under the edge of the couch. I only need to pull it out when I'm moving files around or browsing on the interweb. The wireless works pretty well too. I have no problems lounging on the couch 10 feet away from the tv.

That actually looks promising. I assume no backlit keys of course, but still...

I just wanted to throw this out there because this software could save some of you money that have windows mobile phones with WM6. Its called MobileRemote by mobileSrc.

I use it on my HTC Mogul (Sprint.) It allows me to use my phone as a blue tooth keyboard and mouse, and it even supports hardware keys.

I do believe the price of it when I got it was like $5.99 or something.

I have one of these Ipazz things connected to my windows 7 HTPC.

90% of the duties on my HTPC is performed with my MCE remote but when i need to type something I just grab this thing. The nice thing is, it is small. One drawback, no TAB key.
It feels cheap and flimsey but works just fine. Like I said... using a remote control is the way to go but when you need to type something its handy to have a wireless keyboard handy. And if you are going to have a wireless keyboard you might as well get something small.
