Hi, at the moment I have a Blaupunkt radio, and I'm about to move to an EMPEG player. Over the last few years I've been using the Blaupunkt remote, which is mounted on the steering-wheel. It's very cool, I know it doesn't have many functions, but it has the important ones, Volume, skip number, mute and 2 xtra (used for changing Cd on my radio), but at least you don't have to move your hands from the steering-wheel to find a joystick, remotecontrol or the radio it self.

Since the RC07 remote is IR, I thought that it might just be a matter of lending one, reading the IR signals, and then programming/adding support for it in the EMPEG. This way people don't have to use some credit-card sized remote, that always seem to disappear :) There's a picture of it in the link below.

I know we're getting voice recognition now, but still a remote has it advantages once in a while, fx while being on the phone, playing loud music, etc.
