Just a thought, is anyone here collating all these IrDA 'howto' pages that
people (like yourself) are creating? As I'm seeing here there's a wide
variety of IrDA chipsets/dongles and IrDA devices it seems to be nigh on
impossible to write one Grand Unified Infrared HowTo...
If no-one else is doing this, I might as well have a go at making a central
web resource linking to guides like Jean Tourillhes one here.
