Or at least the receiver. ;-)

The new version is a monster improvement for me, excellent work, Dan. 
Things got better with the Hauppauge remote, and I was able to go 
through an entire irrecord this time with my RS remote. Previously, 
with the Hauppauge, about 3/4 of all button presses never resulted in 
anything happening, with the other quarter divided up between proper 
functionality and crashes that managed to kill off both lircd and the 
mythfrontend. Now I've got responsiveness and stability that are nearly 
100% with my RS remote. Cool!
