[slinkelist] need a remote contral that uses CDJ and fits on coffee table

[Tang, George]

Just an added note: PDA IR beams are too narrow and weak to be used for
remote control.  However, there are third party add-ons to many PDA's that
adds a stronger, wider IR.

    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?
