Guest Alex (nedge2k) Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 Just to add to what Paul's already said, I tried this out earlier today on my C600 and it crashed it big time, so really, don't bother trying it on TI OMAP devices :)
Guest mini_man Posted January 25, 2007 Report Posted January 25, 2007 bah! well we all know that sooner or later they will create one that will really work on almost all smartphones! as we know there are some ppc applications that will run once on a smartphone and follow an infrared command. Sam

Guest Kallisti Posted January 26, 2007 Report Posted January 26, 2007 Sorry, am I missing something here? Isn't the Hermes compatible with this? I'm nowhere near anything IR, but when I get home I'll try it out.. Seems to load and run OK.
