Hmmm, what does that one have that mine doesn't? I used to have a logitech elite duo, but the infrared just didnt have enough reach and had to be pointed directly forward. With the BT keyboard, I can change positions, lay down on the couch and typ, I find it more versatile to have a bluetooth KB for a HTPC...Just my 0.02 cents...thanks for the recommendation tho...

How do you like that blue tooth keyboard? I am thinking about getting one soon. Do you know about how long the batteries last on it? Do you experience any lag issues with it? That setup you have looks awesome!

I love the keyboard, no lag whatsoever, its jsut like using a regular wired one. Batteries I use are rechargrable NIMH, that last about a month or two.

Honestly i like some parts some parts dont like but if you like hey what does it matter. I dont like the face that there is no arm rest because your arms do get tired when they are just hanging mabe it doesnt afftect you. loving the samsung moniter/tv excelent choice. loving the sound system which more geared to a computer ergomatic. I like how you tried to combine it all into one but it just doesnt cut it for me.. But its a nice setup to save lots of room and space and the neatness is just off hand
