I got the travel remote for my Studio 17 yesterday. I’m surprised they didn’t include it by default as it’s dead handy.
It works perfectly with Media Center & Media Player but doesn’t seem to operate in Windows itself i.e. higher or lower the system volume (it may only be programmed to trigger certain responses)
Most of all it slots seamlessly into the ExpressCard slot on the left side of the notebook.
Strange it came in the box with mine for free.
ReplyDeleteI went for the model one from the top. I'm guessing you went for the top one.
ReplyDeleteOk going to ask a few v silly questions - what is it, ie what does it do, what's it for? I'm not a dell user - my lap top is Packard Bell.
ReplyDeleteIt's basically a remote for when your watching stuff on your laptop.. so handy for watching movies in bed
ReplyDeleteAh ok. The word "travel" threw me a bit. I've a tv & dvd player bedroom. I got great help from last summer who hooked up my lap top to tv & home cinema sound system, along with my vcr, an ipod and the digi box using a Switcher - Hitachi 5 Channel Audio/Video Control Centre. Can't find a link here but J would probably know what I'm talking about.
ReplyDeleteI'm don't tend to watch movies on a lap top. Probably just me, but I find them hard to watch from that source, much prefer the tv which is why G hooked me up that way in the first place.
