IR shooter/blaster available on X10?

We all know the infra-red receivers for X10. But are there also intra-red transmitters available? I'd like to be able to switch off my amplifier, TV set and beamer by means of sending it a remote control signal, instead of just cutting the power.

Im not aware of any X10 IR transmitters, the USB-UIRT however is handy IR device. Check this topic http://www.domoticaforum.eu/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=22, This infrared transceiver is called the USB-UIRT, Which comes with a handy DLL.

Details (in Dutch):

Is anyone familiar with this product?

I can control all my IR devices via HA software (Homeseer)
Like the blinds, TV, airco etc.
I use Irtrans hardware (www.irtrans.de)
They have USB, RS232 and ethernet versions.
prices are starting from 100 euro
There products are two way..Same device is also receiving IR codes for controlling events in HA.

For two way infrared the Irtrans is a awesome device, Ethernet, POE and open interface with lots of software examples.
Ordering this for x-mas

I use both the ethernet and usb versions in combination with girder(both infrared receiving and transmitting) and they work great...
