Wckediden - Mobile Tricks and Tweaks Community - [RELEASE] [APP] [MAJOR UPDATE 1 June 09] Turn your Diamond into a remote control

I've recently been working on an application, called dRemote, that will allow you to control windows media player anywhere in the world.
As soon as you hit play on your mobile, the pc will hit play on windows media player and starts playing music through the pc's speakers.

This is an Client-Server application which means that the dRemote server must be running on the pc you would like to control. Then the client will connect to the pc via the internet, this way you don't need to worry about having to walk to the pc to switch songs or pause.

You could play music upstairs while your downstairs in the living room.
For me it's useful because I sometimes practice downstairs and I prefer using speakers because you get a better bass out of them.
Imagine being able to chill back and relax, watch a video and pause without having to run all the way (lol) to the pc to pause it.

This will also work for videos.

You can now view/select your playlists and songs from your mobile phone!

Suggestions/ideas are welcome!
