... there shuold be a more easily accessible tutorial about firmware upgrade and configuration options. It's shipped with an ancient fw and caused me a lot of headache until I figured out I could update it. :(

FLIRC is a wonderful concept; and I am sure it will prove very useful. BUT ... it failed to recognise the Apple Keyboard !! On first start-up; a "wizard" asked me to press the key immediately to the right of the left hand Shift Key. ... it then declared that the Apple keyboard layout was unrecognised. Interestingly; having once failed to identify the keyboard, the "wizard" no longer appears. ... FLIRC only offers me a Windows Keyboard layout. This is a very disappointing start to what should have been a delightful relationship. PLEASE: Let's have an upgrade, to bring full functionality to the Mac. ... Then it will certainly merit Five Stars. MichaelG.

Neat little device which is easy to setup. At present there is no setup software for the pi, you have to set it up on another device. This is not a problem as it remembers the keycodes you programmed. My only minor negative comment is that it will only accept 6 keys from your remote.

this is reason enough to host your XBMC install on a R-Pi. simple and elegant user interface and all the functionality of a keyboard setup without the bulk. Brilliant!
