OK. I think that I'll get a wireless card for my iPaq and see whether I
can't do something a bit more sophisticated with running Homevision...

I really should get around to posting the VB code I'm using to drive HV
remotely... it's now interfacing to my web site quite well ;-)

Regards,

Mark

Sorry,

Should have replied in line. It is really nasty that Philips have
discontinued the Pronto and replaced it with an inferior product. The
only way you can get decent functionality now from a Philips product is
to buy the ridiculously over-priced Pronto-Pro. I've made my views on
this pretty plain before. Philips had the opportunity to make
improvements to the product and haven't, whereas Marantz have. I know
they are part of the same group - perhaps that is one reason why I get
so hot under the collar about the Philips attitude on ProntoPro and
Neo.

I've already decided to jump ship to the Marantz RC-5200, but I'm sure
I
won't be the last. That does have extra functionality, but isn't
colour.
After all who needs a colour remote control?

The other thing that I'm considering is to use a PocketPC with an
Ocelot. The only drawback with that is it doesn't have IR for local
control :(

Tim.

What's nasty? I don't understand?
