Since I bought an iPhone this summer, I've been thinking a lot about using it with PowerSDR. Personally, I'm not interested in jailbreaking the iPhone and voiding the warranty. What I am considering instead is modifying PowerSDR to include VOIP and remote control by TCP/IP. Properly done, PowerSDR could be used locally from your computer or be configured to listen for incoming connections from another copy of PowerSDR running in remote mode. With this capability in place, it would then be possible to write an iPhone app that handles the control and voice functions for remote station usage. I spend a fair amount of time on the road and would have access to my station from my iPhone during the day and from my laptop at night. I don't think it could get much better than that. No mess, no fuss, no third party apps.

Anyone else think this is a good idea? I'm seriously thinking about buying a Mac so that I can start working on the iPhone app.

Maybe not knobs, but find or develop another app to assign functions to the
3 buttons on the iphone, that might work ;-)

it be interesting if someone developed an SDR application for the
iphone.
