On one of my myth setups, i use an ATI Remote wonder.  I actually setup
an ir transmitter to power on and off the tv and change the volume.  I
programmed some of the buttons on the remote wonder to control the
actual TV.  This reduces my setup back down to one remote, which makes
it much better.  I also plan to expand this to include a surround
receiver, which will also be controlled by this ati remote.
