I'm sure this will likely be a repeat for those of you that get the
Parallax email newsletter, but this seems like a cool product.
Essentially it's a little board that I believe hangs off an I2C bus, and
has an IRDA port. There is then software that you run on your PocketPC
to act as a an operator interface. Parallax is understandably pushing
this for the Basic Stamp, but I bet it could be used for a PIC as well.
