Technology is cool!

I wanted to watch a DVD last night and when it came to the menu I was
unable to negotiate through the different sections up and down. I have
a universal remote and it is lacking that function, I was going nuts as
it was a 4 part series and I couldn't get to the other 3 parts after
watching the first. Couldn't find the old DVD remote, what to do?

Well I remembered that my HP iPaq had a program called Nevo that lets
you use the PDA as a remote. In less than 30 seconds I had programmed
the PDA to use as a remote for the DVD and it had the additional
functions (Up and down arrows) I needed and was able to watch the other
sections!
