    Hi all,

    Have been using the MCE remote VRC-1100 with my HTPC for a good while now... (the remote was under recommendation from the peeps on here... so thanks for that) and it works great.

    I have been using a normal cheap usb wired keyboard for typing and renaming files etc. but i would like to get a wireless RF keyboard now. I have settled on the following Keysonic ACK-540RF keyboard... Linky

    Only problem is that now i have a couple of quid to spare, amazon wont ship to here... another seller on amazon does but is charging £18 delivery! pushing it well up to over €55. Finding it hard even on ebay to find a uk seller who is not looking for a fortune to post it

    Can some recommend where i can source the same keysonic keyboard for less/less postage? thanks.

    Scan should be slightly less shipping, you might have to ring them though.

    Thanks for that but works out the same...

    £12.34 delivery to ireland and unit cost of £29.99

    at todays prices on xe.com its £42.33 or €51.84 not including credit card charges... so you could add another €2 to €3 on top.

    So still working out at approx €55. :(


    Thanks for the heads up armitage_skanks... didnt see the free shipping on that one... will check out that now.

    As an alternative what about this?

    http://www.logitech.com/en-roeu/keyboards/keyboard/devices/8276

    Free P&P if you order it from Logitech direct.

    That's a pity about the shipping. I bought that exact same keyboard from that exact same seller two years ago with free shipping (I just checked my order history to be sure). Not much help I know, it is a great keyboard though.

    I had that keyboard for about 2/3 years, quite good. It eventually gave up the ghost so I picked up a Targa from Lidl and it is superb, much better piece of kit. Keep an eye on the Lidl website for it, around €40.
