I really don't understand why you guys want to use you Axim as a remote. When I first got mine, I ran across some software that would allow me to do this. However, I was disappointed because of the range.

After realizing that this was a hardware issue I decided to abandon the idea. I would have also pursued this further if I didn't realize that there is no substitute for a real remote.

I admit that it is cool to say that you can change the channel with your PDA, but really... Is it worth the head ache. I think not.

The time and effort spent on this project could be better utilized investigating GPS. Now that is a worth while battle.
