hi just wondering is there a smartphone application out there that can be used as a remote for the carpc? i know you can program with visual basic.net can this be possible? it would be nice to use your phone as a remote control isnt it?

I use my sony ericsson K700 in combination with FMA. I can do everything with it and it isn't a smartphone, hehe.

K700i has automatic desktop and media player remote built in if you enable HID device in the BT settings on your PC for th K700i. Then whenever they connect via BTt he phone asks to start remote control automatically.
