Sounds pretty cool, similiar to what we are doing. our opensource product will allow you to stream any unprotected content from any upnp enabled media server, and find content published via bonjour.
We launch an alpha on sourceforge next week. www.mooncatventures.com or mooncatventures.blogspot.com for a youtube video of our offering. The final product will work on the iphone in an ajax enabled interface or just about any other device that supports a web browser, content is adjusted to the device playing it. obviously video on the iphone is limited to mp4 and h264 and on a wm mobile device wmv. Wish you luck with your offering, I know the issues of trying to launch, still having research issues (bugs) and trying to get a public facing web presence up.
