[slinkelist] Windows CE port of CDJ

[Nathan Cornillon]

I'd also like to have LAN access to it.  The CE could be a service
provider pretty easily.

I want a cute little display sitting on top of my CD players that
controls them all.  Right now, I have to walk upstairs to my PC to
search for a disc.  If my PC in the other room contains the database,
and the CE device is just the front end, that would be fine.  I just
don't want to have a PC sitting in my living room.
