I was hoping I could finish my IR link first so you wouldn't need/want
to build one into your EuP. But the problem with the EuP IR link is that
it won't work without special drivers. Mine will, and it will hopefully
support I2C too (untested, but it should work).

How about IrDA? I don't know much about it but I've understand it can be
used for a serial-IR-serial link...if you don't have to, don't design
your own. It's frustrating, I can tell you :)

I've got the same problems...plus organizations, friends, parties,
work...
