I noticed the other day that MythTV has an option to "Enable Network
Remote Control interface".  Looks like this is just a port you can
telnet to and pass commands.  I intend to write a remote control app
that would run on OpenMoko.  Cause I think that would be awesome.  Of
course, it would only really be useful if the Neo has wifi...

Hmm...  Maybe I should create that project on openmoko.org.

Me too.  I want to use the moko to control a media center PC that is
connected to my stereo, for queuing up audio files and etc.  My PC uses
a video projector for the monitor and turning on the projector is too
much trouble just for queuing up audio.  Leaving the projector on uses
up the bulb life too.  I wonder if one of the linux based media center
apps like mythTV would work for this?  A custom remote control app for
the moko would be best, but a web browser interface would be fine too.
