You can google any of this software or even look at some of the PPC software boards.

I personally wouldnt want to use it as a remote but I can see where some ppl wanna try new things and trick it out to do things is wasnt thought of doing. If I remember ppl were doing it with the 67 but the range even then was bad. So bad you had to get very close. But to each thier own.

Yes, this is not a worth-while investment, because the IR range for these devices, and the power-output is no-where near (or even designed for) the controlling of TV's. Even the Windows Media Center remote requires an IR blaster, and I am positive the Mogul does not come standard with this output, :wink:.. You can spend the 30-40 dollars on a gimmic, but it's not worth it, IMO.

But if you still want it then here.

TV remote controller 5.7 (voice operated)

the above app is great. i use it on my old pocketpc phone edition hitachi g1000. it doesn't work on the 6700 or 6800 though.

i remember i tried to use a remote control on an old Palm and I essentially had to be right next to the TV for it to be able to pick up the IR signal.

If you have ever tried to sync Activesync, with your device's IR, you know how under-powered it is, and how un-likely it will save you from having to get up and change the channel the ol' fashion way. :)
