Instead of worrying about triggering the shot remotely, I just set up the CHDK script for continuous shooting, once every second. With a 4GB SD card, that's at least 20 minutes of shooting at 7megapixel shooting, then I just copy off the photos that come out the best, and delete the rest. The interval shooting .BAS file that's on the CHDK site works well, I had to tweak the autofocus a little on my camera to get the shooting to be once a second, otherwise the focus took a couple of seconds between each shot. With a small change to the program, you can refocus every 10 shots or so, most of the time you're focusing on infinity so it doesn't matter very much once you're up there.
