Almost perfect parts are Gyration's
"Media Center Remote"
http://www.gyration.com/en-US/Produc...0001&accshow=3

and
"Universal Remote Control for PC,Media Center, and Audio/Video
Functions"
http://www.gyration.com/en-US/Produc...01US&accshow=3

But you might better wait a little bit for their new "New ULTRA R4000
Remote"

The most important thing with those is the unique feature of the cursor
steered by the motion of one's hand.
