Which is where the much discussed IR network would come in handy, if you
had 
any CAT5 to send it down :-)

Seriously though. A wireless handhelp (iPaq etc) with a web page that 
triggers IR via a RedRat or whatever. That is then picked up by a receiver
in 
your node 0 or wherever the PC is & transmitted over the IR
network.

Ian Bird was working on such a system, and I beleive he made some good 
progress, but didn't get to a working prototype. Is that right Ian?
