Canon T1i remote recommendations

[NJGuy3]

I'm shopping for a remote for my Canon T1i, two questions:
1. Which is better/preferred...wireless or corded
2. Which brand/model...Opteka RC-4 wireless, Canon RC-6 wireless, Canon RS60 E3, there are additional non-brand inexpensive remotes too.

I've been looking on Amazon, here is the link to my search:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref...words=canon+t1i+remote&ie=UTF8&qid=1311868580

If anyone has any input, recommendations...I'd greatly appreciate it...thanks!

that will work but you can get it cheaper on ebay or dealextreme, gadget infinity, etc. The wired remotes don't need a battery so it will always be good even if you only use it for fireworks once a year. I use the RF-602 wireless flash triggers which can also function as a remote - about $25. Or you can go really cheap and use a three prong video cord for a remote.

I find the wired remote Hedy handy because it supports bulb mode, the wireless remotes I looked at didn't. Of course, wired remotes tether you to the camera with a 2 - 3 foot cord, so everything's a trade.
