Palm IIIx and QRemote



This is rather annoying, though it amuses my colleagues to no end...

I installed the QRemote program on my Palm IIIx which turns it into a rather
expensive universal remote.  After delightfully annoying my wife with it, I
tried the timer function.  I found that it did try to work, but apparently
IIIx IR is too weak for the environment.

I did end up with a new feature:  every day at 7am, which is the time I set the
QRemote timer, the Pilot starts attempting to Hot Sync.  I said start for a 
reason - it continues until it succeeds, and then it continues to hot sync
until I reset it.  After less than one week, the batteries are at about 40%.

I deleted QRemote, of course, but this still continued.  I found and deleted,
perhaps haphazardly, a program called "Launch", but this still continues.  I
only believe the problem is with QRemote, if anyone knows differently, please
let me know.  My next course of action is to sync up and wipe out the memory.
