SnapStream Media Announces Launch of Firefly Mini PC Remote
IR Remote Control Builds on Firefly PC Remote Technology in Smaller, Simpler
Remote Control
March 8, 2006- SnapStream Media, Inc., a leader in digital
home entertainment products, announced today the launch of the Firefly Mini
PC Remote. The Firefly Mini PC Remote features a small form factor and fewer
buttons, infrared (IR) technology, driver-free installation, and seamless integration
with SnapStream Media’s Beyond TV and Beyond Media. Firefly Mini builds
upon the popularity of SnapStream’s original PC remote control, Firefly.
Responding to customer demand for a PC remote control that employs infrared
technology, SnapStream Media began shipping the Firefly Mini PC remote today.
The Firefly Mini’s use of infrared technology allows it to work with
universal remotes and integrate with existing home theater systems.
The Firefly Mini PC remote features easy setup and fewer buttons, for a smaller
and simpler PC remote control. Driver-free installation allows the user to
simply plug the USB PC remote receiver into his PC and instantly start using
the remote. As a standard Human Interface Device “HID”; most of
Firefly Mini’s buttons trigger keyboard commands that will automatically
work with many applications.
The Firefly Mini PC remote works seamlessly with Beyond TV and Beyond Media,
and will support many other media applications right out of the box, including
Media Center Edition.
The Firefly Mini PC Remote is available for $29.99. The Firefly Mini PC Remote
can be purchased at www.snapstream.com, and will soon be offered in a selection
of online stores.
