Of course, with the softmod you're planning, you don't need one.....

XBMC with a wireless controller does the same job

Is there a wireless controller available for the Xbox1. Didn't know that!

There are indeed. I got a couple of these a while ago. The batteries last for ages. Well worth it.

"I'm linking to that ad to show you the controller. I don't know the seller and I'm not recommending him."

Each to their own I guess. Would wreck my head using the controller as a permanent solution, even a wireless one.

I picked up 2 in Game in Dundrum before Xmas. On a stand on the wall opposite the Tills.

Now have 3 xboxes running XBMC. 1 for each display in the house. Those in combination with 3mbit BB, Unlimited Cap and bit-Torrent = TV heaven!!

Thanks for all the replies. I am buying a remote from a guy on adverts.ie. Cant wait to get cracking with my newly modded xbox with XBMC installed, should have done this ages ago! Thanks again.

Well, to be honest, I've never owed a DVD remote and have always used the wireless controller. Is there stuff that you can do with the remote that makes it better than using the controller?
