I did contemplate the idea of trying to get external access to the
squeezebox server but for obvious reasons didn't want unauthenticated
access to the server so I enabled basic auth security.
Unfortunately I was unable to find ANY android app that will connect to
stream.mp3 while it has basic auth enabled.

So in the end I gave up and installed Subsonic on the server and phone
which works wonders and squeezeboxserver and subsonic sit happily
together on the same machine.

I have however just as an experiment took a squeezebox v3 with me in
the car connected to my HTC Desire via Wifi Hotspot (Three UK -
unlimited data) and connected to the squeezebox to SqueezeNetwork with
general success - I see no reason why it would not be able to connect
to the internal server over 3G - but I am hesitant to provide external
CLI access to the server as I don't know how hack proof it is.
