Great solution for those hoping to integrate a universal remote into their PS3... No power on, but emulates most other functions.

Anyone use this? I use my PS3 for movies and this looks better then using the controller.

I don't have a blu wave player :'(

I don't even know what that is!

You gotta have line of sight using this since it's an IR remote. Just stick with your controller.

Blu Wave...haha...nice going, marketing.

Sweet, was going to pick up another Sony BD remote for my bedroom PS3, but now I can use the USB dongle from this with my harmony remote. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm curious to see how this Nyko product will up a console, seeing as how the intercooler was pointless and fucks up consoles and then the charger/battery set they sent me to replace the intercooler fucked up my controllers.

Yeah, I may buy this to use with my universal. Bummer that you can't power on/off from it though.

Sucks

You sure about that? This POS only retails for $20 normally. This is not the sony one. The only use for this is the IR receiver for universal remotes. Personally, I love my blue tooth (sp?) remote and think they all should be. IR is sooooo last gen.

If you bought it off of Amazon (assuming it being $25 due to shipping or whatever), just e-mail customer service to have the difference refunded.

If you bought it at GameStop...lol u gotz pwned. :(

Calm down. I think that if you look more carefully at the actual listing...you will come to realize that you probably bought the Sony Blu-Ray Bluetooth remote, and not this third party one.

[ighosty]

was thinking about buying this, but after reading this i changed my mind

[Teqonix]

Bah, the USB reciever that'll stick out of the front of the PS3 ruins it for me. No thanks.

[Troz1820]

Grabbing it so I can finally control Blu-ray movies with my universal remote instead of needing the controller next to me for movies. Thanks for the heads-up OP!

[pun123]

picked up the Sony one for 19 at BB pricematched with CC, works great, I love the bluetooth and that you don't have to point it at all at the player.

[sugarhigh4242]

I wonder why 3rd party peripherals continue to do USB adapters rather than straight Bluetooth. Its supposed to be a standard.

Probably because it's cheaper.

[msdmoney]

I think I might pick this up for an eventual PS3 purchase, that way I can use my harmony remote for everything.

Um. The OP left out a "1" in the price. It's really "$19.99" at Amazon. So don't feel bad!

I, however, AM a bit bummed. I wanted this so I could use my Philips Pronto with the PS3. Right now, the Pronto controls 8 devices of 9. The PS3 being the odd man out with Bluetooth (Universal Remotes all use IR). Buying this thing for $10, I could just plug in the dongle, ditch the remote and I'm set. Ho well.... :(

The OP didn't leave a "1" out, it was $9.99 yesterday for the DOTD. Deal is dead now.

Exactly. I just programmed my Harmony 880 with all the codes hooked the dongle into the PS3 and its good to go. Nice product if you have a decent universal remote.
