    PC XBMC Remote Control

    Hi guys, just setup XBMC on my daughters windows XP PC and loaded it up with her fav Films/TV etc but im wondering if I can get her a remote control to work with it, just looking for something cheap really. Also is there a Sky Player plugin for XBMC yet?

    Cheers

    It's really hard to beat the iOS remotes, if she has an iPhone or maybe iPod? I use a couple on my iPad and they are fantastic!

    remote ordered, so much easier ordering something when you know someone is already using it, saves a lot of headache, cheers
