IrDA - reading devices ...

[Hubert Brandel]

Hi,

the old Windows Handys and PALM had IrDA device on board.
Those was used to get stored data out of external devices like heating etc.

Does someone know if there are such "reader" devices for android handys (USB or bluetooth) ?
Can we than comunicate with the serial lib - like I did to print to the bluetooth printer ?

Thanks
Hubert
