Anyone had one shipped to the UK? Their wesite says shipping to US, Australia and New Zealand only 
Might like to buy one but I'm in 2 minds, on one hand it seems pointless having voice control if you have to pick up the remote anyway, on the onther hand it is probably the only realistic option other than a headset which isn't practical and still picks up unusual commands when volume is loud.
If they don't ship to the UK then it's not really an issue anyway I guess.
Hey Shango, bundlebox is probably your best bet. Don't forget you get a $40 coupon for amulet if you own a copy of VC.
Try contacting eddy from amulet. The company is based in Ireland, so it seems crazy that they don't ship to the UK, but I guess it all comes down to licensing costs for them.
My philosophy of VoxCommando and remotes:
I try not to view VoxCommando as a
replacement for a remote, but as an
extension of one. I still use my remote for the arrow keys and volume control all the time. It is WAY better than using voice control for those types of things. But adding VC is like adding 1000s of buttons on your remote, and you don't need to find them (just remember the words) it works in the dark and allows you to jump directly to the content you want. But when I don't know what I want, when I'm just browsing through my content, I always use the remote. Then there are the added features of VC that aren't necessarily directly related to speech recognition. The ability to create macros, control lights, get TTS feedback on the weather, email, now playing etc. It also allows you to do a lot of stuff that would otherwise be impossible with a remote, if you are in another room or you want to leave your TV off. I also think it's fun to use to try to find cool new ways to automate stuff. EventGhost is also a wonderful tool for that kind of thing, and VC and EG work well together. If you accept that you need a remote anyway, having the remote and the microphone in one device just makes sense. There are of course times when I wish I had a comfy headset (like when I'm doing the dishes and listening to music) and in those cases there are options, though none is quite perfect unless you want to spend a bundle.
In the end, I think we still need our remotes. People that want to use VC to eliminate the need for remotes will usually, ultimately, be disappointed. IMO.
* If you have a good remote anyway and a way to interface it with your pc, it is easy enough to create a mute/listen button for VC and use a good open air microphone like a conference mic
