Siemens Simpad 173 pounds

I have seen these advertised on the net, being shipped from Poland. Does anyone have any knowledge of these, I was thinking in preference to a Pronto.
Thanks

Give lscolman a PM. He is the local guru on using one of these as a remote!

You'll find it is much better than an iPronto at a fraction of the cost.

Cheers

IMHO - Alot more versatile then a Pronto,when using Wincesoft's Remote Control II software.Infinately configurable - and lots of fun when designing your custom remote displays.It brings out the creative side in you that you wasn't aware existed.

The built in Irda port is more than up to the job of handling the IR signal,and you can use it with other programs/games apps when your not shooting signals at your AV kit.

If you buy one,you won't regret it!

Thanks for the replies. I have seen a few complimentary things written about these and they do look very promising, thanks for input.
