Today I found that analog of FiireChief for LinuxMCE - remote control with built-in gyration. It looks very close to FiireChief except the three buttons for UI2 and “Follow Me” to transfer media. People on the LinuxMCE forum confirmed that that remote works fine with LinuxMCE.

The price of Gyration Media Center Vista Remote is £109.99 (including wireless keyboard) and it can be ordered in Europe.

Since version 2.0.0.40 Plutohome has offered a new user interface - UI2. UI2 is based on OpenGL and has amazing video effects. However, it’s a bit difficult to user it with ordinary keyboard and mouse. But with Gyration GC1006M you’ll able to easily control your home. This brief howto explains the basic principles of working GC1006M and Plutohome UI2.

Note that UI2 has a meaning only for on-screen Orbiters. The rest Orbiters use old UI.
