With a homebrew serial lirc receiver you can use almost any RC you 
already got. I'm using the pvr-350 remote and the VCR buttons on
my TV remote (as a backup when i can't find the 350 remote :) .

When testing your remotes, try to find one that does not give raw 
samples in the lirc configuration files. In my experience those are
more error-prone.

Look at the lirc homepage -> homebrew.
