I have written an applet which controls the power of my amplifier
connected via USB/Serial to the Touch (would like to control volume as
well, but the server messages are not really useful, but that's another
story ...).

The big difference seems to be that you want to control other stuff
apart from music while I just want to turn on the amp when music is
playing and turn it off 10 minutes after no music has been played. This
does not need another UI or complicated user settings which would be
necessary for controlling all kinds of other stuff in the house.

BTW: Both br and heyo compile out of the box using the cross-compiler
for the Touch. Just tried it.

If somebody wants to do it, I'm open to sharing the code I have at
present (there are a few interesting things to note when trying to
communicate over serial when a Keyspan, Prolific or FTDI is connected
to the Touch ;-)
