TV Remote

[ferrarienzof430]

Is it possible to use my Sprint HTC Touch as a remote control for my TV/DVD/VCR?

[MoonZ*BabysH]

not possible due to no IR port on the Vogue, correct me if im wrong.

no you're right

Is there any way to make it control my PS3 via Bluetooth?

[minir4]

look into a program called bluetooth remote control (http://www.jaylee.org/remotecontrol/) i don't know if its any good for a ps3 or anything, but it can be used to remotely control your pc, which is still pretty cool. You can use it as a wireless keyboard and mouse on your couch when you are watching something, or something like that.

Some one really needs to make a Bluetooth-to-IR adapter .. lots of stuff has bluetooth and not IR

There actually is a way you can do this by useing a control system like Control4. www.control4.com

yea, at the additional cost of interfaces, control units and software...

pretty much defeats the original question of controlling the tv/dvd and the like with the HTC Touch he currently has when you will be spending upwards into the hundreds+ to setup everything just to do the same a simple universal remote for 10 bucks can take care of for all the devices he asked about

Might as well suggested a X10 system or one of the others out there LOL

If you use Windows Media Center, you can use Webguide4...it will allow you to control the Media Center interface on your PC by accessing it via a webpage and selecting "Remote Control". Its pretty nifty

As far as a TV itself or a cable/satellite box.....quite simply....no.

ferrarienzof430,

Slingbox would do it for a price.
