Extended Systems

I'm new to Girder and only just started looking into it.

Extended Systems has a transmitter/receiver that is fairly inexpensive. Its really for PC File transfers using IrDA, but was wondering if there is any chance of it working with Girder? I just noticed it says the operating distance is 3'. Thats not very useful I guess.

Sorry, just answered my own question, Its not usable since its IrDA. I just read on another website what that means. Its not the same as A/V remote controls (made so it won't interfere with regular remote controls).

Thanks.
