Can anyone recommend an Infrared Adapter to hook up to a PC?

I've trolled the avs forums and meedios forums but no clear answer.

I dont want to buy a ATI card and remote or the MCE remote because I already have a Harmony 880 remote to use for my HTPC. I know some of you have set these up.

You can use the All in wonder remote without needing an ati card...its a USB device. And it is RF, not infrared, which is much better.

Im just gonna buy a wireless mouse and keyboard and map the keys on the keyboard to the keys to the remote.

I forgot about this and its great because I wanted a wireless keyboard and mouse as well for this setup.

Anyone have any ideas or seen any low profile sleek combos?

FYI:

You can DL Meedio now and there is no Serial required. I dont know if they messed up today when they released the update but I got it and the thing is usually around $50.

So if you were wondering what it is or just want somethign to tinker with its there.
