[mythtv-users] Controlling a Frontend from a Laptop

Hi,
I currently run mythbackend and mythfrontend on the same box. It
works great. To change channels I use a wireless keyboard. However,
the range of the wireless keyboard seems to be quite limited (about 5
feet). I'm looking into alternate ways to change channels.
What I would like to be able to do is control mythfrontend from my
laptop. This would be analogous to controlling the frontend from a
wireless keyboard, but with my laptop I wouldn't have to worry about
the 5 feet limitation of my keyboard since I'll be communicating with
the frontend over 802.11b.
Has anyone tried to do this before? If not, any ideas on how this may
be accomplished?
Thanks.
nathan
