why infrared should be added to GTA03
I have not (yet) invested in one of those expensive universal remote control thingies. But I really lust after that functionality when I fight THREE controls (sat TV, DVD player, TV, not to mention a separate audio system control) I think the cost and complexity of adding IR is very small. It would be a hackers delight, and provide another point of differentiation. Ron K.

Hello, perhaps that could be a cool addon for the Freerunner :) I think it is possible to build the hardware oneself. Last but not least we need a software for it. http://features.engadget.com/2004/07/27/how-to-turn-your-ipod-in-to-a-universal-infrared-remote-control/ with kind regards Patrick Am Sonntag, den 29.06.2008, 07:00 -0700 schrieb Ron K.

But perhaps you could make something with bluetooth and IR blasters. -- Regards, Torfinn Ingolfsen ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
