Anybody interested in an XDA as infrared datamodem?

[Anonymous]

Is anybody interested in this?

If there are some votes I could build an application which provides a infrared to datamodem proxy.

This feature is already part of the new 3.16 ROMs currently under test.

If you are looking for a project, would you consider this?

I have a tracking unit in my car. I can send it an SMS message from my XDA and it will return a full GPS NMEA string with a header. Can anyone tell me the feasability of writing an application that could post this incoming data directly to the TomTom maps program and display the vehicles exact position at street level.
The GPS application supplied with TomTom maps can obviously do this with streaming NMEA strings through the serial port.

If this application is possible I think there is a lot of potential. I am in the telematics business and I know that the majority of tracking devices work the same way.

I think it's possible to write this application. All you have to do is to build a virtual serial port driver in Platform Builder and to check incoming SMS messages in a user level application.

If you are interested in a real bussiness project just let me know.
