[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Using the N770/N800 as a remote control.

[From: Jon Smirl]

Did a SIR transmitter make in into the N800? I have a Phillips RC9800i
remote control and I would like to replace it with my N770 or a N800.

I've been looking around for a IR transmitter/receiver in the form of
a USB dongle and can't find one. You need a receiver in addition to
the transmitter so that you can train the remote codes.

It only costs a couple of dollars to build a remote compatible IR
transmit/receiver USB dongle. Adding this capability would be very
useful given the way I use my N770.
