store. I could never get MyMote to work with my Myth frontends. I posted
something on the mailing list with my issues and the developer asked me a
bunch of questions I had already covered in the post. RRgh works although
the interface can be a little clunky.

The one issue with these remotes is the lag of the iPod itself. It takes a
good ten seconds after being switched on to attach to the wireless network.
No fault of the applications but still a little annoying if you're looking
for an instant channel-changing solution.
