I tried some of these IR remote apps when I first got my phone, but none of them seemed to work that well. I also read some threads about the weak IR emitter in the 6700 so I mostly gave up on the idea. I just tried Novii Deluxe a few days ago and I have to admit I'm impressed. The included IR code database is a huge improvement over the other programs I tried. I was able to control 3 different TV's just by picking the manufacturer out of a list. I also used it on my Dish HD/DVR receiver without any problems. Best of all, I can use it at over 10 feet if I aim at the receiver carefully. Pretty cool. I guess the IR emitters vary from unit to unit. I was pretty surprised with the distance I got.
