I am also looking into using my Dell Axim as a universal remote. While I have no way to personally test this, as my Axim is still in the unopened box in my apartment, the following will work:

Head over to
PDAWin
and download (and eventually buy) TV Remote Controller 5.4

This version has support for the AXIM.

The next major problem, is to increase the IR range of the Axim. I just got an email confirmation from the maker of this part. While his site has not been updated yet, his card has been tested with the Axim.

PDA-IR

Good luck, and make sure to post your results!

Cory
Cory,

Just to let you know. I plan on purchasing the Axim-compatible card as soon as it is available on Dave's (EDV's) website. I have been running the PDAwin software since version 5.0 (i believe it was) with no problems at all on my Axim. I have used an external IR extender up until this point. If you search the boards here, you'll find some screenshots of my setup if you'd like a look at them. Anyhow, I'll keep you and everyone else posted when I receive my PDA-ir card in a couple weeks.
