Almost all TV tuners have a remote control, and they are supported well under 
Linux. You can make your own remote control sensor, and use it with USB2COM 
adapter and any remote. Or see the LIRC homepage for a list of supported 
remotes available commercially. You can even plug in a Bluetooth dongle into 
your box and use your mobile as a remote (I think I saw the relevant software 
@kde-apps.org).
