Re: Could this be a "stupid question"?
IR stands for Infra-Red. The majority of remote controls for TVs, VCRs, DVD players, and stereo systems use an infrared LED (Light Emitting Diode) to transmit commands to the receiving unit. This LED is usually hidden behind a dark piece of plastic (look at the tips of your remotes). Older PDAs & PDA phones had infrared communication to allow syncing with other PDAs as well as laptops. This has all but gone away with the emergence of bluetooth which was faster & didn't require direct line-of-sight between both devices.
The Touch Pro doesn't have IR.
