Nope, there has been no need to port it to the tablet.

does this include a full port of LIRC that runs on the tablet itself, or does it simply emulate/have some way of creating fake signals that then get sent across the network to trigger LIRC on another machine somewhere?
Sort of. LIRC actually has builtin support for controlling the lircd daemon though network. You just need give lircd daemon the "--listen" option.

I'm going to see if I can figure out a way to throw together a quick and dirty little IR blaster (either serial or USB), but if the package doesn't include LIRC or any modules then it's going to be a lot more complicated...

Thanks,

That would be cool.
