All you need to do is pick up the data that comes through the N900's audio in and process it.

Given the fact that it would need power and electronics, it'd be kinda odd. But such dongles exist for PCs and the data can be carried over, it's how lirc bdatabases are built. It's much easier and a converter is very simple, and it draws power from the serial port on any PC.
