DIY NES iPod remote

Well here is a cool DIY project. Instead of buying an expensive iPod remote, why not make your own out of an old NES controller. This takes some PIC microcontroller programming, and is not for the faint of heart. Looks good to me.

By embedding a PIC microcontroller into an NES controller, it can be converted into a replacement for Apple’s iPod remote.
(Only 3rd and 4th Generation iPods have this, it is a the small oval port next to the headphone jack).
