Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - EXCELLENT UNIVERSAL REMOTE SOLUTION 4 PS3
I have a recurring dream where I punch Sony's CEO in the face for not integrating IR along with Bluetooth in the gaming console that set me back $500. I usually wake up covered in sweat and with a curious throbbing in my left hand. Luckily, there is a real world solution for the frustration universal remote owners feel when faced with the PS3 Bluetooth problem. The Nyko Blu Wave.

I use a Harmony remote to control my entertainment system and with the Blu Wave, the setup couldn't have ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Perfect for use with a Logitech Harmony 880 Remote
This is exactly what you need if you're looking to use your Logitech Harmony 880 remote to control your PS3. Once I followed the instructions mentioned in some of the comments here to tweak my 880, it worked just fine. I can now use my 880 to control my PS3 just as if it were a SixAxis controller. I haven't tried playing any games with it yet, but if I wanted to, I probably could ;)

For the people complaining about there not being a power button, this is not the fault of the remote, ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Relief for universal remote lovers
With the acquisition of my Harmony 880 universal remote a while back, I was finally able to get rid of the stack of remotes that used to clutter my end table. That is, until I got a PS3. Since getting the game machine, I've had to keep a second bluetooth remote next to my Harmony. This was due to the fact that the PS3 does not include any sort of IR control capability.

The Nyko Blu Wave is a very satisfactory solution for the lack of IR controllability for the PS3. It allows play/pause, ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - No Power Button!!
Unfortunately I didn't read all of the reviews before I purchased this. I ASSUMED that a remote would come with a power button. If you use a Harmony remote like I do, then you know how great 'Activities' are. Too bad you STILL will have to turn on the PS3 using the controller or the console.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Very Basic
This remote is a cheap alternate if you are looking to program a Logitech Harmony or other universal remote. It provides very basic functions (stop,play,pause,etc.). It will not turn the PS3 on and off. If you want full control of your PS3 through your universal remote search for "ir2bt". For $55 dollars this device provides total control. All 51 codes from the "Sony Playstation 3 Blu-ray Disc Remote". It is a stand alone device that doesn't require the use of any of your usb ports. It took about 3 weeks ... Read More
