Hi,
I'm planning on writing a new media player for Pocket PC based devices, I just wanted to ask what everybody wanted.
This is what I currently have planned:

* MPEG Audio support
* OGG Vorbis support
* Full skin support
* Visualisations (Spectrum analyzer/etc)
* Full equaliser
* Today screen controls
* Screen off (think winamPAQ)
* Alarm clock function
* RS232 Remote control support

I'm not going to support winamp skins since i find the winamp layout fine for pc's, but too fidley for pocket PC's
I'm not going to support WMA/RA since the less these proprietry formats are used the better.
It will be FREE (as in beer) and probably open source too. (it will all be C code with a dash of arm assembly for speed)

Anyway, say what else you might want, so its not too much of a b***h to implament it later when i have a full code base:)
