Best remote control software, in my opinion...

I second Alex, better than Nevo, you can use the CCF skins of the Philips Pronto (see www.remotecentral.com for skins). It's working great on my A620 (you need to edit the skins thoug to make it landscape cuz the IRDA of the asus is on its side)

is FAR better. It will give you a 100 foot range, and is pre programmed for over 300 devices. $30

James Sonne : if you click on the pdawin page : you will see that TV Remote is hardware as well, so...
tomrob : as far as i can test (i have a small living room :)) 3-4 meters is working without problem.

and please don't talk about what you didn't test :)
Your message seems sarcastic, i didn't mean to hurt your feelings :)
Like i said i test many "tv remote" software the one from pdawin has a nice feature that no others have, it accepts the CCF files, don't look only initial "skin" of pdawin, it's ugly. Go get some CCF files from remotecentral.com

For lazy people here's the link to the CCF files : http://www.remotecentral.com/cgi-bin/fi ... =color&fc=
Do they look ugly and unprofessionnal ? :)

PDA-win is far inferior. And the range extender that you have to buy seperately is a CF card, which few PDAs can utilize. Total Remote has better skins, if that's all your worried about, too, and the hardware will work in all PocketPC devices.
