Long range wireless keyboard? (10m+)

    Hi,

    I have my PC hooked up to my TV so I can watch video files on my TV. The only pain is having to go to the PC keyboard every time to fast forward/rewind etc.

    All the wireless keyboards I have seen online have a short range, I'm looking for something with around a 10 metre range so I can keep it beside me when I'm watching PC stuff on the telly.

    Anybody know of a keyboard suited to my needs?

    p.s. I couldn't be bothered installing Media Centre

    Surely there are Bluetooth keyboards available?

    There are, but they're fairly expensive. The only one I'm aware of is a fancy logitech one that costs about 150 quid... comes with bluetooth mouse too though.

    Can recommend this one from Logitech:
    http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/IE/EN,CRID=2162,CONTENTID=8062

    Have it on one of my desktops and can go outside the room, along the corridor and it still works:cool:
