There is a commercial product out for the Amiga, called Illuminlink. It
uses the Joystick port and can handle most IR waveforms. The current
version doesn't handle multi-frequency IR waveforms very well, but
this is due to be fixed in V2.0. The cost is $75. I'll post ordering 
info and a review of the beast as soon as I get a chance to play with
the one I'm buying tonight. 

BTW-Illuminlink uses Arexx for communications--and has a seperate
input for decoding touch-tones. It can emulate a mouse from a cordless
phone! Neat toy.
