Hi Andy,

A couple of years ago I built a Remote Control unit that was able to learn
any given remote control for any device and then reproduce this by commands
either from the PC or a stored time/command configuration, this was done
with a PIC.

I was thinking that I would integrate it with a voice recognition module
and do exactly what you are trying to do and thought of the same market
share that you are developing for. After some marketing research that I
did, I decided not to continue with this project. But, the idea is still
nice and I hope that someday someone would do this and disabled people
could enjoy it.
