actually sarcasm aside, I was just thinking how nice it would be to have a 
pure (wireless --> spdif) bridge.  no display, no input devices, no analogue 
stage, just a remote device that can be hooked up to whatever hifi set up is 
required and then controlled entirely through a web interface (on a phone or 
a PSP or whatever).  Wouldn't even *really* need to handle decoding on the 
box either (server hardware is very cheap).
