Will this work with RF devices?
My blu-ray player has no IR reciever, it only works with RF and IP remotes. Does this thing support RF as well as IR?

Answer
The VooMote Zapper works with IR only. It can control RF or Bluetooth devices if you have an adapter for them or if they can be switched to IR. But it does not support IP, Bluetooth or RF by itself.

Answer
The PS3 has no infrared receiver. In order to use it with your PS3 you'll have to buy a IR adapter for the PS3. There are a few IR-USB dongles for the PS3 on the market as well as some adapters which transform the IR signal into a PS3 bluetooth signal.

The VooMote Zapper is a line of sight device. It uses infrared only. You can not control your hidden devices directly with the VooMote Zapper.

Answer
Sure - even if it's not in the database, you can use the original remote control to teach in all the buttons. I did it with my old PVR and it works perfectly.

Will I be able to use the VooMote when I have my iPad 2d gen connected to a video projector via the VGA adapter?
I want to be able to control my iPad while same is mirrored on a screen via the av adapter, from a location other than at the actual iPad location for presentations. I already ordered this remote and now I am wondering if the remote portion that needs to be placed in the iPad port will be able to be placed there with the adapter as well or will I need yet another item to be able to accomplish my goal?

work with cab;e tv
I have an iPhone4. What do I need to purchase in order for the phone to interact with my Sony TV which receives its signal from local cabel tv service?

Answer
If you already have an iPhone4 you just need the VooMote Zapper. The App (which is available in the App Store for free) already has all the IR codes built in. With the Zapper and the Zapper App you can control your TV and your cable box like you do with your original infrared remote control.
