How to turn your iPod into an infrared remote
Engadget has posted an interesting how-to on turning your iPod into an infrared remote control for your TV, DVD player, stereo, etc. Using Griffin’s Total Remote Software and IR device for Pocket PCs you can transfer the same technology used in the Total Remote to the iPod. You might remember that Griffin had originaly planned a remote device for iPod called the PodMate, but development was canceled before going to market.

A smartphone does this much easier already, I strongly suggest you all go out and buy one now, so that you never have to leave your couch
