Yeah, I use the plex android app on my phone as the remote. Before I used Plex, I used XBMC and had RaspBMC as my client. But Plex is just much more polished.
And I haven't tried to get any gear locally. The few things I bought I got off Amazon or EBay. The Pi itself I ordered from the official supplier: http://canada.newark.com/
