I agree-- Amarino is pretty useful.  I'm doing a project that uses
Amarino to transmit strings of data over XMPP.  (Google put the kibosh
on making your own jabber client, but I found a useful JAR to get
around it.)  Put Amarino together with XMPP and your device becomes a
great transmitter for broadcasting microcontroler status anywhere
instantly.

If you're interested in going that route, check out (in addition to
Amarino)
1) Asmack (Jabber hack for 1.5 and 1.6-- not sure about 2.0)
http://github.com/rtreffer/asmack
2) ChatStar (which I wrote cobbling Amarino and Asmack together)
http://github.com/harlo/ChatStarr/

Thanks,
