Just curious, what have you been waiting for?  What is it that NetRemote will not do for you?

Mario:

Gotcha.  The picture is actually of the PocketPC that I have - the Toshiba E740.  I assume that the scroll button on the upper left side of the PPC will scroll, too?

Mike:

Sorry - I don't know what you mean about "waiting".  I'm not waiting - I'm using NetRemote now.  I've actually helped Ben with the development of it - I did the "NRIRServ", IR server for it.  So, you could say I have a vested interest in NR.  I love NetRemote, but I also like to check out new things.  MusicLobby seems to have a bit prettier screens, although some people have done some pretty nice ones with NetRemote, too.  ML may be a little better on a larger screen, too, and I'm going to be getting a couple of Tablet PC's.  I want to try ML, and see if people find it easier to use.  The whole idea is to be able to hand a PocketPC or a Tablet PC to someone at a party, and let them control the music.  If I like ML, I'd probably end up using both.

Dave, I think you need glasses, or if you've got a pair, you need stronger glasses. He said "Davie", not "Dave". Look further up in the thread and you'll see what he was referring to.  ;)

I'll stick to NetRemote because of the openness of the system (you can do just about anything with the screens) and especially because it's so much more versatile. So I don't think I'll pay 85 bucks any time soon for a system that's mainly a more limited version of NetRemote's Media Center control. And I can't believe how much room is taken up with eye candy! To browse my library looks like it would take forever on that system.  :o

Mastiff:
Mario, you have a very nice design on the area around the screen in your home theater! But I would be interested in knowing why you have choosen such a light color on the walls and roof when you've got a projector that's already has enough problems showing dark and black images.  :)

Buckaroo:
Mario-
Terrific work, and I for one welcome solutions that don't require the level of hacking that netremote does. I think that this opens the door to a new class of user for MC. I think that the market is extremely limited at your price point, but perhaps that can come down with future iterations.
