I have come across www.giantdisc.org , this uses a palm pilot client to remotely control a linux based music jukebox.

Is there a similar system that i can use on my Axim x51v? I have several times toyed with jukebox & media centre programs and have always found it a pain to have to turn the TV on if i just want to listen to music. having the axim act as a remote client to the blind server via wireless would appear to get around this problem.

Look for Slimserver. I had an old PC that was connected to the back of my stereo, that was connected running Win2k and connected to my server (a Mac, but SlimServer works in Windows, linux etc. too) via wifi.

From my PPC I can open a web browser and configure the playlists etc. remotely. The PC connected to the stereo didn't have a monitor, if I REALLY needed to get to it I'd use VNC, but I could do everything from the web page on the PPC anyway,

Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.
