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, Harlo/Lovers v.
