Yeah, this is another good point, though not so relevant for me as
the equipment will not be in the same place as the remote anyway. I
suppose that I should also point out that I may well not be using a
remote control at all in some rooms, but instead will send the 'IR
Command' to HV from a HomeAutomator web page. This is particularly
true since my Pronto finally gave up the ghost at the weekend.
