I was just thinking of trying to use my current X1 remote. It's an XR5 v4 if your familure with those at all. They are universal but my thought was this. When watching normal TV the remote functions exactly as it normally would. When switching to my htpc plex client I use the arrow buttons to navigate, center button to select movie, pause, stop ,rewind, FF etc. Then switching back to normal cable TV all buttons function with my cable box as they would normally. I can dig up a separate remote I suppose but I'd rather just use one remote so I'm hoping that works out. Either way I'll figure it out once I get the device. I'm excited to check this thing out! Tired of having to grab a mini keyboard!
