Yes I've heard the MS MCE one is good. My one that's a bit short is a cheap
Logitech one. Range is probably only 2-3 metres which might be enough in
some rooms. The problem I had at the time is that they don’t tell you
anything about range in the specs but I imagine there is more information
out there somewhere if you google around.

Apparently the MS MCE infrared keyboard works well and has good range. It 
works on the same receiver as the MCE remote. If it has similar range to the

remote then I can imagine it's pretty good.
