PS3 Blu-ray Bluetooth Remote
I just received the PS3 Blu-ray Bluetooth remote for the PS3 for my Birthday, and I have to say that I like it a lot. It’s a lot nicer to use a remote to control a movie than to use a controller, I found. The remote works well, and the system is very responsive.
The ability to pause easily and advance frames forward and back works really well. I like that, because sometimes I want to see a certain frame of a movie because of something I thought I saw in the background, or whatever. So being able to advance frame by frame easily is a real boon.
I also like the eject button. Every DVD player, VCR, and gaming console’s remote should have an eject button. I am super-lazy, and I want to be able to hit eject from the couch, walk over to my machine, and pull the disc out immediately. That’s the only way to go, man.
So I’m very happy with this remote. Just a small note: Walmart was selling this remote for $20 more than other places like FutureShop and EBGames. Buyer beware!

I like my remote too. I like the fact that if you press any button on the remote it turns the PS3 on. But once it turned the PS3 on by accident when I was moving stuff around in a drawer.

I can’t believe they didn’t put a power button on it. You have to hold the PS button to shut the console off.

So you can turn it on by the remote, but not off?!
Sounds a bit strange…

Yes, you can turn it off. Just not with a single button press.

It was a bit disappointing seeing as thats how the PS2 remote worked, and I loved that thing. I used it all the time to turn it off, thats the main reason I bought
