    It goes in the express card slot for storage only. It works by IR.

    I got the other remote... which looks like an actual TV remote. So if my Dell has infared, why does it come with a separate receiver?

    You have a 1520 right? look at the part right under the start play and rewind buttons. What's that?

    That remote may not work with the integrated IR. I read somewhere that the integrated IR is designed only for the Dell travel remote. Even if it does work with it, I still might expect the remote to come with its own receiver because not everyone ordering the remote is going to have the integrated IR.

    I know that I don't have the 'right' remote but wouldn't it have made sense for Dell to just have used the integrated IR?
