    I have written a tutorial on ethernet (TCP/IP) control of relays with Blackberry Playbook that may interest members and visitors of this forum.

    It is quite easy to control external electrical devices with Playbook.

    It is all detailed in my blog Redacacia:

    This may be a daft question but what can you do with that relay?

    Quite easy to try! You will need the board ETH-RLY02 to try out. It can be bought quite easily anywhere in the world including through my company Aliatron. In North America you can buy through Devantech. There is also an 8 relays board ETH-RLY16 (newer version is called ETH008) that you can use for controlling up to eight electric devices.

    Not daft at all. Quite legitimate question. In my example I am controlling two equipment in my Lab. You can say switch on Air Conditioner or open Curtains. With the board ETH-RLY02 you can switch ON or OFF two electric devices independently.
