Hi!
This unit http://www.griffintechnology.com/griffinmobile/index.html is made for PocketPCs, but it works by taking signals from the headphone jack. Can it be possible to make a Girder plugin that runs it from a regular soundcard on a PC? I have no idea if it's possible, but it would be a great IR emitter if it was!

Anybody?

Without any documentation from Griffin I expect this to be extremely difficult. :( Besides who has a spare soundcard built in the computer to drive the unit with ?

But proove me wrong ;-)

I was afraid of that. But a spare USB soundcard is very cheap and most pcs nowadays has USB ports. The solution looked so nice, though, that I wanted to take up the subject.

Yes it does.
