Question about PS2 remotes

I\'m thinking of picking up the official Sony remote next month since it has good functionality and updated drivers (rumoured anyway).

Well, I was just wondering if it was possible to control the CD player function of the PS2 using the remote.  I know it probably isn\'t known about the official Sony remote but I figured if the other available 3rd party remotes supported it that it would be in the official Sony one too.

Anyway, does anyone know if you can control the CD player with it?  Thanks.

I don\'t think you can....I don\'t know:shy:

You can use the SONY Remote like a normal Joy-Pad... therefore you can use it also for the CD-Playback (like the normal Pad) !

it wont work as it would for a dvd but will do the same as a dual shock would

No its not rumoured that it has updated drivers. Its fact

The Official Sony Remote WILL work with the CD Player too, it will work like a proper CD player remote would, you\'ll be able to use the number buttons to choose track etc

and your proof is where ? exactly..no where to be found..so the rumor it is..how many times have we heard about updated drivers ? GT3 and TMB ring a bell ? have we seen it ? NOPE..diddly, squat, nada, nothing, zippo...shall i go on ?

so until its a "FACT" in other words..OFFICIALLY announced by SONY, its STILL a rumor. i think i should ask the SONY REP the next time he stops by

Is information from the Official Australian Playstation site good enough proof for you?

So yes please, do go on

What are the new/improved features of the driver upgrades?

im not going to even bother in this thread, find out in the other thread about SONY\'s DVD Remote..as for what is the updates...there arent any except for the BIOS disc making the remote actually function with the menus
