Hello All,
I'm wondering if there is a very simple (and cheap) method to transmit data from the board with my microcontroller on it to another board? I was looking around ant patallax has a nice transmitter/receiver pair for about $30 that you can buy here:

They are very nice but also pretty pricey. I did find what I thought would be the ultimate, cheap solution here:

Does anyone know of any other similar setups in a small one-chip solution that can both transmit and receive data from another identical chip? I'm not concerned about the speed of the data transfer since I would be controlling it with a BASIC Stamp and the range can be around 50ft or less. The only reason I'm not going with the above chip is because the receiver board is rather large (my circuit has to fit on a 2" by 2" board).
Thanks,
Jason O
