Reomte control PC
I built a shuttle based system as a living room PC last year. Everything is
great, but I wan't to know where I can buy a remote control device and reciver for it - I'm fed up with the wireless mouse and want to complete the 'look' ! I believe the motherboard has a connector for IR, but where can you buy a plug in sensor and what remote do I use? |

But that's a COM: replacement, not a remote control. You may find some hobby projects to modify IRDA for remote control, but don't expect anything standard. (And if you happen to find something that actually works, please do not hesitate to let us know :-) -- Kind regards, Gerard Bok |
