Palm TX has 320x480 screen, wi-fi that supports WPA, and of course, many
application programs, and costs about $250 (often $230).

I tried my wife's TX for controlling slimserver and it works OK, but it
isn't a great way to do it.  The screen is too small and you need to use
the stylus to make selections.

I ended up getting a used Fujitsu ST3500 tablet PC for $220 on ebay- it
runs win2k, has a 10", 800x600 touch screen.  The only klunky thing
about it is that it has a wi-fi card sticking out of the slot.

I installed an 80 GB HDD and loaded VLC media player.  Before long car
trips I transfer 5 or 6 DVDs to the HDD via the network.  It keeps my
son happy for hours.

There are a lot of ways to skin a chicken, especially for around $200
or so.
