Using the IrDAClient class in .net CF

[Sinex]

Hi,
I am using the IrDAClient class in .net CF to build a chat application
targetting my iPAQ 3715 running PPC 2003. Now, I understand that there are
different types of IR namely:
SIR - Serial IR
MIR - Medium IR
FIR - Fast IR
VFIR - Very fast IR.
My doubt now is this: Which form of IR communication will be used when I use
the .net class IrDAClient to develop my chat application ?? Am I effectively
using SIR or MIR or FIR ???

IrDA is a layer above Serial IR, which abstracts from the physical serial
connection and handles concurrent multiple services. All Pocket PC devices
will be equipped with IrDA tranceivers, as long as you specify the same
ServiceName on both ends your devices will be able to communicate. The speed
of connection will be negotiated by the devices automatically (they could be
Serial IR, or faster depending on the type of device you are talking to).
