Logitech Google TV Mini Controller + 1 Yr. Replacement Warranty! (Refurb) - $54.39 FS Newegg

this has nothing to do with google, and these things are very unreliable. about the right price though, finally. they were way too proud before.

You maybe referring to the DiNovo Mini. Those were terribly unreliable bluetooth keyboards. This is made for the Google ReVue (so it does have to do with Google) and is RF so no problems.

ah i see, you are correct it looks to be a similar design with special google-yness. still my comment did not pertain to the bluetooth signal, but more the buttons and pad breaking.

I hear this one is updated and more reliable. But who knows, all they really needed do was replaced the transceiver and print different buttons.

With a free one year warranty, who cares. I'll send it in, get a replacement or my money back

Sorry to get a little off-topic but I'm looking to get a mini wireless keyboard for my HTPC. Do Bluetooth in general have more problems than RF's? I get mixed reviews. Also, I've heard that one of Bluetooth's advantage is you don't need a direct line of sight to operate and that RF's do. I'm thinking of getting a Rii-type mini keyboard, one is Bluetooth and has all the function keys and the RF one has only 8 function keys. I wanted the Bluetooth one but now I'm not so sure.

Just gotta say: Logitech has one of the best warranty programs around. I've had to use it a couple times over the years.

First time was for a Harmony remote. Screen broke. They refurbed me an exchange model even though I think it was out of warranty and I had no proof of purchase as a one time replacement. Was very impressed.

Second time was for my MX Revolution mouse (3 year warranty). The wheel was sticking, they replaced it with a brand new Performance MX which is my current mouse.

Third time was for my Cordless Desktop Wave. One of the plastic legs broke, (to keep the keyboard elevated), and I was just asking on how I could buy another one to replace it (it snaps in place, it's like a 50 cent part), but they told me they would just warranty the whole keyboard set, and upgraded me to the Desktop Wave with the unifying receiver, through warranty exchange.

I am continually impressed the way they step out of the way to assure their products work well. And I really shouldn't complain about the free upgrades honestly, but sometimes they just go way over the top for me.

Oh yeah, none of this cost me anything of course. They send me prepaid UPS labels everytime to ship the product back to them.

I have to do another warranty exchange on a faulty Logitech Revue (refurbed one from Amazon) that I think is just outside it's 90-day warranty, but they are sending me a return label anyway. Not sure what I'm getting back honestly (I think they will actually have to repair the Revue this time), but no complaints which is why I use a lot of Logitech stuff (3 Harmony remotes, Revue, webcam, mouse, keyboard, speakers, ipod dock, laptop dock etc.)

+1 On Logitech taking care of their customers. They don't even seem to care if your warranty is expired. They bend over backwards to make you happy. I wish more companies were like them.
