I took my Sony BD Remote with me to show some issues. Marcel did some on the fly coding to get the device connected, but there is missing an hid driver that maps the keys to an input event xorg can use. So the device is not working yet, until somebody creates a proper hid driver for the device to map the keys. I don't know if Marcel commited the code to make the device connect. I spent far to much time trying to get this device working, there are a few bug reports and some post on the archive from me about this subject... Hope this information helps you understand.
