The talk about RS-232C reminded me of another simple

around for awhile--MIDI.
I hate MIDI cables--I mean I REALLY hate them. I trip over them, they get
tangled up in my chair and I'm afraid the dog will eat them.
I've seen a couple of wireless MIDI adaptors, but since they're low-volume
items, they're freakishly expensive. Does anyone have any ideas or
experience with a low-budget wireless MIDI setup?
I haven't seen anything out there, but since the interface is to optical-type
parts anyhow, would it be reasonable to use IR LEDs and such like you'd use
for a remote control?
I guess directionality and distance would be the determining factors there.
