Infrared Hardware Comparisons for N900

This wiki is to compile a list of hardware revisions and infra-red distance to help with development of Pierogi.

Currently there is a mystery issue for some users of Pierogi. Some people are experiencing a less then ideal range issue from there IR module. Hopefully in compiling data in the table below, it will be possible to establish a solution.
