The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022.

    Ya, you need an IP port for this sucker. No idea if your M6400 has one.

    I know bluetooth radios are big and all, but seriously. An IR port?? I thought those when the way of dinosaurs.

    Dell phone rep yesterday was incorrect as I appear to have found another similar product from Dell.

    Express PC 34mm Media Wireless Remote

    Manufacturer Part# MEAPE3
    Dell Part# A2396218

    Although I don't think it is charged when stored in slot.

    It eats a USB slot, but it works though.

    Edit:

    Make sure it works with Powerpoint. On my remote, the next track and previous track buttons are discrete from the powerpoint buttons. I noticed another remote with seperate next/previous buttons...

    I have the same problem on my m6400. I might have to do with logitech software overriding the OS settings.

    I know the Dell bluetooth mouse software will override the OS's pointer speed settings. It is a known issue and yet to be solved AFAIK.
