Wow.  I am suprised Belkin doesnt work.  Their products are really good.
I never heard of Peracom. I know that Lego claims that "it worked for some
users", but I wanted to stick with brand-names that I was familar with.   Does
anyone know if Lego is coming out with an USB-based IR Tower or better yet,
did anyone try to get their IrDa port working with the RCX??
