Philips SRM7500 remote control for windows vista with a receiver

Komplett.ie do them but not with a receiver for the PC

payless.ie and pixmania.ie also sell them but they must be doing great business cause its been a week and two emails since I asked them did they sell the remote with the receiver and they haven't bothered to anser. I've dealt with Komplett.ie before they're pretty good, dunno bout the other two.
Heres a pic of one with the receiver in case anyone thinks I'm mad and there is no receiver for this remote.

Unfortunatly its on amazon and they don't like shipping anything other than dvds to ireland.:(

Hitchhiker's Guide to...

moved to computer forum from consumer issues.

This post is about a universal remote control I'm after.
There was points about
komplett.ie
pixmania.ie
payless.ie
amazon

Surely I got it right posting it in the consumer area? I know the remote can control PC's but its not a computer..................
I'm new to boards.ie but not to forums

irlrobins

It's not a consumer issue and it's not a building question. Better place is media centre forum...

Fair enough;

Anyone here any ideas on where to purchase a Philips SRM7500

This is not laziness btw
I've spend ages googling but can only find the remote on its own (no receiver) or cannot get answers out of websites on the products they are selling, its not on ebay either.

you need to find the pc receiver for the universal remote.
philips dont make it.

Heres what our friend Risteard from Komplett.ie said:

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your enquiry.

A receiver is not include; only the remote and a quick-start guide are included.
This is all that is necessary to control the TV.

Best regards
Risteárd@Komplett

Wishing you a happy and safe 2008!

I suppose its not beyond the relms of possibility he didn't thoroughly check it out, or maybe theres a mistake on the part number......
I don't want to have to order it, find out theres no receiver then have to order the microsoft receiver with remote which I won't use, the couriers will be rich aswel having everything arriving sepretly with delivery charges!

I'll get onto Komplett.ie again and put your evidence to them subway.
Thanks for your input by the way subway!

subway

no problem,
suggest you ask mckomplett here http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=242
instead of emailing them

alansweeney100

I emailed Komplett.ie already, they've just replied;


Dear Sir,

Thank you for the details.

We do not advertise that a USB is included because it is not included in the box.
The manufacturer part number is provided to us by Philips, so is out of our control.

Best regards
Risteárd@Komplett


So there you have it! they sell the remote but not the usb receiver and they don't claim to do so, so can't really blame komplett.ie
Why do philips even ship the remote control without the reciever???

Back to square one now. Anyone know where I can get a philips remote SRM7500 with reciever??
