Review: Gyration Air Music Remote Control

 

Gyration's Air Music remote makes operating Media Center easy, which is just music to our ‘airs.'

In all, the Gyration Air Remote is a great deal for all of its features, and it can add immense value to the Media Center experience at a fairly low cost.

EXCELLENT REMOTE! Perfect for an HTPC! Great Customer Service!

 

EXCELLENT REMOTE! Perfect for an HTPC! Great Customer Service!

I own 4 Gyration products. They are absolutely superior to anything that's on the market right now in the HTPC remotes/Air Mice categories. I bought the "Music Remote" to replace its predecessor (the "Media Center" remote), which I now use in a...

Awesome remote!

This is the 2nd remote that I've bought like this and I absolutely love it. This time around I bought the remote with the media LCD display and whereas I don't have much use for it, my wife loves to use it while she's in the other room getting ready. ...

Worth a try

I chose Gyr4101 over ZV [...] because 1) Gyr is cheap - technology is changing fast and paying too much for RC doesn't feel right. 2) Volume and Mute buttons on ZV are not functional yet. 3) Have doubts in viability of ZeeVee company. High price of ZV...

I sent this back

I bought this remote w/keyboard but after checking out the huge "upside down" receiver sticking out of the side of my laptop, i returned it. If it were a nano sized receiver i would have kept it! Aside from this major design flaw, it was pretty fun to...

It works- hallelujah!

 

It works- hallelujah!

Basically, we hooked up our TV to a computer. So, we needed a wireless keyboard and wireless mouse. At first we got a real mouse- I forget the brand (I think it may have been logitech). It didn't work well- it didn't have enough sensitivity. It was...
