You'd need to get a TCP/IP network running over IR. On the Mac, go to the TCP/IP control panel, select IR as the connection method (pop-up menu), and fill in the other fields as appropriate. No idea how you'd do it on Windows.

Other alternatives would be Ethernet, or a USB Zip drive.

Cheers,

I have an IBM Thinkpad that I have been using previously. I now want to transfer all of my data files (spreadsheets, docs, etc.) onto this Pismo. My FTP server seems to choke before I can get the zip file containing it all (about 60MB) uploaded, I've tried a dozen times now, it never completes and doesn't support resume. I've tried 'splitting' the zip file and uploading the chunks onto the server, which works, but then I can't open the split zip files in OSX.

So, is there a way I can just transfer the files from my thinkpad to this pismo via infrared?
