    How difficult would it be to port CDJ to WinCE (or whatever they're 
calling it now) so that the remote, or a PDA, could do almost everything CDJ 
does without the wires and the computer? New PDAs are beginning to come with 
32 MB RAM, which should hold a user file fairly easily.  Even if a PDA 
version only allowed users to play discs and tracks and did not include 
features such as allowing manual input or CDDB lookup of titles, users could 
benefit by using the regular CDJ for the more complicated functions and 
reserving the PDA CDJ for simple control of CD players, receivers, playing 
songs and discs, etc.  In effect, the PDA program could be a junior version 
of CDJ, so that the user transferred his user and playlist files from 
computer to PDA whenever necessary.

    Is such a PDA program a difficult port, particularly in the WinCE context?
