GlideTV Navigator review

Nice, but...

I have two Media Centre PCs I use regularly and I've been getting steadily more and more frustrated with having to use a bog-standard wireless keyboard and mouse to navigate around them.

I've investigated, borrowed and bought-and-returned several media centre keyboards in the past and none have been acceptable - they are either too bulky or naff bordering on useless.

I need a device that is mostly used for navigating media centre/media player, but has more functions than the standard remote.

I saw this, but when I noticed the cost, to say I baulked would be a massive understatement!

Casting around for a similar device, I found the Logitech Dinovo Mini - this seems to really fit the bill in that it has media centre functionality, cursors and trackpad AND a physical keyboard, all in something not a million miles bigger than an iPhone and certainly small enough to fit under the coffee table or on the bedside drawers.

And it's a good £20-30 cheaper.

Grab it for less

I was drooling over this thing when I first saw it, but the price was a sticking point for me. However, I just came across this special deal of $50 off on it here on SlickDeals, http://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1731
