I see a few on fourth or fifth tier sites that i don't trust, or third tier with the price as high as $70+, otherwise on Ebay for the AO9-00007 (older original curvy style MCE remote). I used the link above from Shahn and found the remote that's pretty much the same with out the two tone color sceme, but yet searching google for the many product numbers from their or others i found online pulled up less than the old AO9-00007 & 9 versions. I want original "Microsoft" but ??? i'm just not seeing them, which seems very strange to me given the number of people like me that bought & built Vista Premium or Ultimate systems with the TV tuner cards.??? I'm not seeing any of these new ones mentioned in this article ? At stores like Newegg, Buy com, ZZF etc. This is now two years down the road, but i’m having a hard time finding “Microsoft” Media Center Remotes.

However, that didn’t happen, and the older remotes are still distributed by many OEMs alongside Windows Vista. It’s a shame since its so ugly compared to the gorgeous Media Center experience in Vista. But hopefully with the patent now in Microsoft’s hands, they will start manufacturing these for OEMs. [...] [...] Uncovered back in November 2006 as a plausible design for the generic Media Center remote which Microsoft hands to OEMs to distribute with Media Center PCs, the newer remote design showcases an update to the ‘now-clunky-looking’ original MCE remote which is at least 2 years old.

You can do everything simply by talking to your machine, as crazy as that sounds. With the whole voice recognition, that is now built into Vista, what is the use of a remote?
