Can I turn my notebook computer into a universal remote?
I was wondering, I just got a new notebook computer, and I was thinking with all this wireless networking, bluetooth, and infra red - is there a way I can use my notebook computer as an universal remote? Is there a PCMCIA card, or USB device I could get to attach to my computer to make it like one? (even better - a piece of software that will use what’s already there) I've seen some of those tablets that display what's on TV - then you just press the show you want, and it does the rest. I was hoping for something like that - is it possible?
