Is the Canon 5D wired for an infrared remote?

I am looking to purchase a wireless shutter release for my Canon 5D. Is this camera ready for an infrared remote, or should I be looking at a unit that has a receiving unit?

Thanks

Update:

Edit: Oh, it sits in the hotshoe, OK, cool now I understand. Found one at B&H Photo. Thanks

    I believe not, you need to get a remote slave that sits in the hotshoe.
