Anyone know of a way to be able to turn on the ps2 from a button away from the console? I mean, all the way on, not just on standby.  I don't want to relocate the power/reset buttons, just have another button.

FYI: this is for a car setup, I'm not too lazy to walk across the room....  :P

You need to put a RF transmitter in the controller, and an RF reciever hooked up to the power switch.
Here is my site, it has a few mods, mostly to do with portablization.

:blink: i dont really know how rf transmitters are used  :blink:

I didn't mean actually ON the remote, I just meant "remotely", sorry for that miscommunication.  That way sounds a little too complicated for what I need I think, does anybody have any other ideas?  It would be easier to relocate the power button I think?

its pretty much what I'm looking for, but itd be nicer to get something more, eh, built in.  Plus I already have a switch to trigger a relay to switch between video devices, if I could somehow have it all contained in one switch or button it'd be the best :D
