Does the free runner have ir transmitters? If so you can probably use lirc to do all that you need. There should be a lirc driver for the device. If not you would need to add some kind of hardware anyways. The usb device i had pointed to can get extra stuff into lirc with its ir recievers like other comands you may wish to get off of a remote. If you need to add hardware really take a look at the lirc page they have page after page of different ways to hook up ir devices and configuration pages for lots of common remotes. You can build a serial attached device for real cheap embed the stuff in your phone as you desire.
