Yep, that's probably the case. My PB does have built in Infrared, but  
until people get the remote, we shall not know if our PB's infrared  
will work with it. I seem to recall there are two types of infrared;  
one long range, one short.

It'd be pretty funny - our aged and venerable Ti PB's being  
compatible with a brand new Apple accessory, while the PB's in  
between (am I correct that AlBooks don't have IR?) are incompatible  
with the remote. I'm making a prediction that Apple computers from  
now on will have built in IR on the front. Just a guess.

As far as FrontRow, well, it'll be interesting to see how Apple sells  
or bundles it.
