Possible answer to the out-of-sight hardware control predicament.
Stumbled over an X-10 blurb http://www.x10.com/products/offer60.htm for =
an RF remote mouse and 2.4 GHz A/V sender/receiver intended to control a =
PC DVD player and send the pix/sound to a tv via RF. Price is $70.
It occurs to me that this would be a super way to control Slink-e when =
the PC is in a remote location. The X-10 RF mouse should control the =
PC. A 1024X768 or better composite NTSC output video adapter or scan =
converter should send a good PC screen to the local TV or video monitor =
along with the PC's sounds using the DVD A/V sending facility. =20
Has anyone tried this? =20
