The Phillips remote has been discontinued, but does appear to provide all
of the functionality that I'm looking for.  Do you know any USB receivers
that it will work with?  I currently have the Ortek VRC-1100 (
http://amzn.com/B00224ZDFY), but that itself can be a pain to configure.  I
was thinking of this if the Ortek doesn't work out (
http://amzn.com/B00J5NRWFO).
