It isn't supported officially through the "remote" section of the options, but the ATI Remote Wonder works fairly well.  You can also use a Snapstream Firefly remote and customize the keypress effects yourself with their software.  Both of these are RF remotes (meaning they use radio instead of Infrared so they work through walls and whatnot).

Then of course, there's Girder.  If you use Girder you can make ANY remote work quite well, though it will take a bit of work.

I'm currently working on customizing my ATI Remote Wonder through Girder.  When I'm done, I intend to post what I have set up so that others can use it (but I'm not done yet).
