iPAQ Gets Hardware IR Boost

Thursday, 14 February 2002

"You love using your Pocket PC for remote control. Now, extend the range! The new, patent-pending UltraMote Extender card fits into the iPAQ's single CF slot expansion sleeve"...

"Used with UltraMote universal remote software, the card helps extend the range between you and your equipment, up to 50 or more feet in some cases. The UltraMote Extender casts a beam twice the width of the iPAQ's built-in infrared capability, so you have a broader control field at any distance. You don't have to point your iPAQ directly at the component. There's no set-up to use the card. Insert it and select "external" in your UltraMote software options. When you are using other applications on your iPAQ, you can easily remove the card."
