iPhone have IR? -lol

[hcopp]

are you saying all of digg is wrong?

apple doesnt believe in functionality, they believe in looks, an IR port would look ugly, also the name IRDA is ugly so thats why they didnt include it. (bluetooth is the IR replacement anyways and the iphone has BT2.0)

this post is just a trainwreck, not only were you wrong to begin with, an IR port looking ugly? its a frickin black dot, i think a headphone jack or the sim card tray would certainly beat out an IR port in the "ugly" category. Secondly, i highly doubt they didn't include the feature due to the name being "ugly".

thats another thing but i guess it goes with the Ir bit,

if the iphone had IR, you can control your Mac Mini, Apple TV or ANYTHING that has IR. apple could of even made a program to look like the exsisting apple remotes for their products

By 'it' I meant infra red, I thought that was implied from the context...

I'd be willing to bet that's the ambient light sensor. IrDA seems too old (no one uses it anymore), and it's too small for a SIM slot (I think the SIM slot is the outline next to it).

Bah. If the phone doesn't have IR, then it should be an accessory. The ultimate remote must LIVE.

Nice job of you to post on a thread that the last post was done before the iPhone even came out.
