still think my vnc idea is the best for you. It's so easy and the pda's can be
had for $100 to $150. Way cheaper than a nokia N810 which is like $400 or
so.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=758530215-06052008><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Plus,
the vnc advantage is that you get to see exactly what is on the screen of your
mythbox, even if it's playing live video (it just won't be super smooth
playback, but you'll see the images changing).</FONT></SPAN></DIV><SPAN

<DIV><BR><FONT face=Arial><FONT color=#0000ff><FONT size=2>Works great for me
for music, as I have speakers out in the patio by the backyard and the mythbox
is in the living room.<SPAN class=758530215-06052008> Easily visable outside
too, and you can power it off and put it in your pocket so you don't accidently
change the channel/song/etc.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>
