X3 Ir Mod?

[EddCase]

In the last post on the site about the new front panel for the xbox it mentioned the X3 IR MOD

I am assuming this is a way of using the xbox remote without having the little dongle installed is this correct?

Is there any more infromation on this anywhere?

Is it a mod that I would have to do by hand or is it a future expansion like the x3lcd?

Any information would be appreciated Thanks in advance EddCase.

Control Xbox Power button via a remote control. Switch on/off your Xbox console with an original Microsoft remote control. The IR-Mod upgrade kit contains a PIC chip and an infrared receiver which allows you to send custom commands with the original Microsoft remote control to your Xbox.

Cool Thanks, I've done a bit of research does anyone have installation diagrams for use with the x3?

teamx is making an ir mod for their control panel if i'm not mistaken. you can always wait till that comes out or check xbox-scene. i'm pretty sure i saw a good tutorial on ir mods there.
