Re: IrDA enabled by default- not shown under settings.

This is not just soft setting- tested it with IrDA on notebook. Actually this is how I noted the issue- notebook makes sound every time it finds IR device and even IR was "disabled" on the phone, my notebook was still beeping when the phone was around.
This could potentially drain the battery.
I went into Schap's AC and reconfigured the CommManager icons to show the "beam" then toggled it off. No registry changes made. Click on Menu and then CommManager Settings.
