Thanks Taximania - am on your site now. Do phones have Serial?!
My original PPC(non phone) had Serial, USB and IR. But no BT.
I never managed a USB connection to anything.
My PPC(phone) now, O2-XDA doesn't have Serial or IR, but has USB and BT.
I never managed a USB connection to anything.
This backs up AGraham's post about USB
I don't know about other PPC's or phones. Try Google :-(
And power-wise, is IR or Bluetooth going to be more economic on battery life? I'm thinking the former...
IR is VERY short range, and unpredictable.
BT is better, and I've had no issues with power consumption.
Should be easy to program though. (Yeah, right!) :sign0138:
Wrong, that's the easy bit
(The hardware will be geeky stuff, microcontrollers etc if I can work out how to open the packet.)
Just ask, it's why we're on the forum.
Has your phone got BT ?
