I'm not a 100% sure if this is the correct place for this but I'll let it rip. I'm sorry if this isn't the correct sub forum.

I own a Dell Studio XPS 1640 and the machine comes with an IR port in the front but sadly no remote and no indication of an availability of data transfer through there.

I called Dell tech support and they say its for a remote but weirdly, it doesn't come with one. The sales team at Dell says they don't sell remotes individually.

It doesn't seem as if the port is for data since I couldn't find any option to use it as such.

So basically I'm the owner of a laptop with an IR port without a remote to use it and I can't buy one either.
Does any one have any ideas which Dell (or other?) remotes might work, how I can use them and where can I get them. A media remote would be useful for watching movies :P
