I've just ordered a Handspring Visor, with the expansion port in back. I noticed while shopping around for it that there is an Omniremote module you can get for it that adds more powerful IR emitters, and has the omniremote software built in. At about $60, and the starting price of $180 for a Visor, you may end up with a strong competitor for the Pronto, at a better price. PLUS, you'll have one of the best PDAs to play with too.
