I got one of the Niveus Media remotes for Christmas, an X10 RF remote
(like the ATI) and IR universal/learning remote wrapped into one.

Works pretty well with most of my IR stuff and great for Myth, but I
can't find a code that works with the MediaMVP (Hauppauge grey remote)
and it only lets you learn 30-ish keys which is a bit limiting.
