Something Flashy for us PS3'ers

Anyone seen these before?

Look good to me

Looks decent. I picked up the blue tooth remote. I kind of wish I hadn't - I should have just waited and used the controller. I am probably going to try to get that IR one I've seen and get my logitech to work.

This is probably the only thing I dislike about my PS3 - No IR port!

Nah, I think this isn't a Bluetooth remote since it says you have to plug in a receiver module into a USB port. Probably an IR jobby

Defiantly! I have the Harmony 1000, it works perfectly for everything except my PS3.

This is a very sleek looking remote. If I had a PS3, I'd probably buy it.

I would think Logitech would had included bluetooth technology for the price they charge per unit.

Looks like the charger needs to be plugged in via usb.
Pretty nice design, thinking about getting one now

EDIT: nevermind, I should read first then talk... lol

The charger doubles as receiver

I can't think of another A/V device that uses bluetooth for control. They made a special remote for the xbox as I recall. I have to use IR to RF then RF back to IR or serial or 12v trigger. Do you think there enough of a market for the extra cost on the new model Harmony?

Other than the PS3 you mean, right? (The $25 Sony PS3 remote is Bluetooth, says so right on it.)

Nice looking! Let me know when they git rid of that wire and go true blu tooth!

Yes, is there any other A/V device besides the PS3 that uses bluetooth for command and control? I can understand why a PS3 remote does bluetooth since the PS3 only does bluetooth for wireless controllers.

Point taken, but I do think people are being a tad dramatic about not being able to use an universal remote control with the PS3.

Can't hurt to use an extra remote control sometimes.

but then again, how many consoles used blue tooth prior to the PS3?

[dadkins]

Nevermind.
