[QUOTE="hobbes487, post: 143058, member: 14634"] I would love to see the development of a new PPC client for controlling MP. The one thing I would like to have is an interface that doesn't require the use of a stylus. Using a stylus is so slow and cumbersome. Ideally it would all be controlled using thumbs on the touch screen. I realize this can be difficult on the small PPC displays. The solution to this would be to develop a client program for use on the [URL="http://www.nseries.com/products/n800/index.html#l=products,n800"]Nokia N770/N800[/URL]. The Nokia N770/N800 are touch screen internet tablets that run linux. The client could be written using [URL="http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page"]Mono[/URL]. Mono is a platform that allows you to develop .NET applications for Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, Windows, and Unix. This would allow a MP client to be written for the Nokia N770/N800. I'm not an expert, so what do you guys think? Would this possible? I would definitely get a N800 if I could use it to control MP without needing to turn the TV on. [/QUOTE]
