Can anyone recommend a decent remote that is available in the UK with the following features (that doesn't cost too much):
Infrared (I already have the reciever hardware).
Must have the following keys:
-numpad.
-up/down/left/right/enter.
-vol+/-
-Channel+/-
-5 or 6 function select keys (ie cd/tv etc).

Thankyou,
Matt

The Sony RM-V701 (http://www.bluecamel.com/ramu/images/girder/RM-V701.jpg) is my favorite remote. It's cheap and it has 8 device settings - more buttons than I know what to do with :) I just bought another one (for my computer) on eBay for $10, plus shipping.

I don't know if it's available elsewhere in the UK. I don't think it's sold in stores anymore, but I've seen several new ones on eBay.
