Geekport software is not done, but yes, you'll be able to plug a standard 1/8" IR blaster into the headphone port.
At the moment, we are almost done with basic blasting capability, where the server sends commands to the Squeezebox2. Pass-through, macros, triggers and other things are possible down the road.
Blasting support is planned for 6.1 - right now we are only putting in bug fixes.

Does the headphone jack of the SB2 output the IR codes it receives by default? I'm trying to reduce the clutter around my TV, and I've got a "dinky link" IR receiver sitting right next to my SB. If the SB2 geekport can "blast" out an IR signal, I could just get one of these:

and eliminate the dinky link for use someplace else. The device I want to control is in a cabinet, but not having a separate IR sensor and using the SB2 instead would just be that much "geekier." Plus, my wife would enjoy having one less ugly black box cluttering everything up.
Does the male jack of this thing even fit into the headphone jack? I'm guessing it does, as the specs say it's a 1/8" jack and that's what the SB2 headphone jack is.
Thanks, Paul
