    There are plenty of options out there.  IR/RF/Bluetooth.  This site is an excellent resource for reviews on them.  Check reviews.  In my experience it would be helpful to separate the need for a full fledged media center keyboard/mouse and just the need to point and click.  I only use my MS media center keyboard when I need to type.  Most the time I am only pointing and clicking, though.  I use this Lenovo Multimedia Remote with Keyboard N5901 http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-Multimedia-Remote-Keyboard-N5901/dp/B0036VO67I

    and love the trackball.  Far better mousemovements it is far easier than the media center keyboard.  They even have a model now that has a backlit keyboard which is the only deficiency with my model.

    Seriously, check out this site.  Here is just one http://www.missingremote.com/review/iogear-gkm571r-24-ghz-multimedia-mini-keyboard.  But there are more of them reviewed here.
