Better Experience for Movie Lovers June 27, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Movie Lovers like me can really appreciate this remote for the PlayStation 3. It makes using the PS3 as a BluRay capable home theater video device easy and more intuitive. Especially, if the PS3 is in a setting with non tech savvy individuals (aka your significant other or the rest of your family).
Highly recommended purchase.

Works exactly as it's supposed to. Buttons are easy to use and navigate. Exactly what I wanted.
Great Remote June 21, 2008

This is a very handy option for the PlayStation. If you are going to watch movies this is a must. Once I paired it with the PlayStation it has worked great ever since.
My favorit feature is the dispaly button, it lets you know how long the movie is and how far you are currently in to the movie as well as chapter, resolution etc.
With this remote using bluetooth you don't have to point it at the PlayStation for it to work, you can almost point it in any direction and the thing still works.
 BLUETOOTH Might Be a Pain For You June 20, 2008

As a grown-up gamer and audio/visual enthusiast I was pleased to see that I could kill two birds with one stone and buy a new gaming system and BluRay player all in one. In one sense, the ability to combine things ended there though because this remote, and its PS3 mate, operate via BlueTooth technology. This sounds appealing because it can go through walls and all that (I don't often watch movies from behind walls) or at least you dont have to point the thing at the PS3 and you can hide the PS3 in a cabinet. But you cannot (unless you want to be Tech McGyver) combine this remote into a Universal remote because the PS3 cannot accept non-BlueTooth input. Most Universal Remotes operate on IR (Infrared), some feature RF (Radio Frequency) none that I know of are compatible with BT (BlueTooth). So you better like this remote if you intend to use the PS3 as your BluRay player, because youll be seeing alot of it.

I like the positions of all the buttons. It's nice that all three Pause, Stop, and Play buttons are huge and at the bottom. Very easy to find. The dedicated eject button is another nice feature. During and after the movie, using the remote makes things a breeze.
The problems arise when you're not in the middle of a movie. Specifically problems arise from the lack of a dedicated power button. You might not think that's such a big deal, as the PS button kind of functions like a power button. This is true, it does. But when the PS3 is in standby, so does every other button on the remote.
Yep, as I found out one day, pressing any button on this Blu-ray remote will cause the PS3 to hum to life. That's not a big deal either, except when you have your PS3 encased in a closed cabinet and you don't know you've turned it on. It happened to me once and I found the PS3 on hours later, fans roaring trying to keep it cool. Luckily the hearty little PS3 was fine. Still, I'm sure not to leave the remote lying around anymore.
