Does anyone know if the Datel Remote will turn the PS2 on / off? Thanks

I've only had experience with a Mad Katz remote, which cannot put the
PS2 into standby -- I suspect because there's no command that can be
sent through the controller/memory port to do so.

There is NO remote that can turn the PS2 on/off.

Yes there is. The newer slim PS2s have built-in IR and can be turned
on/off and reset with a remote. I would guess the newer sony remotes
work, I have no idea about Datel remotes. I downloaded the IR code
for a proto (from remotecentral.com) and imported to my mx-700 and it
works great. It works the same as the reset button -- push it to turn
on, push it again to reset or hold it in to turn it off.

Do you think it would work for the version 9 and 10 since they have the
built in IR ? Ive been wanting a remote and if it could turn it on that
would be cool. I hate having to always go over and turn it on, hehe.

Any IR universal remote can programmed to control the PS2 if there are
codes available for the remote to do so. "lonesw0rdsman" says his Pronto
can; I also know (from personal experience) that the Logitech Harmony
remotes can, too.

I don't know what version 9 and 10 means. :-/ A version of the PS2?
I'm not familiar with that. If you are looking at PS2 remotes maybe
just check if it has a reset or power button on it. If so then it'll
probably work with the slim PS2s.

My 50001-series will turn on and off with the Sony remote.
