"Needs lots of work"
Version: Home Control 1
Pros
It's free.
Cons
Requires Microsoft .NET Framework v2.0.
Requires WACommand.exe for Winamp control (Google it, not allowed to include links in these reviews).
I only got this working through some messing around ? not for novices. I had to do a printscreen to see the error message to see that .NET was required. I also manually configured the config.ini files on the computer and my on Pocket PC. Installation on Pocket PC will not place an icon in your Programs directory, you'll need to manally browse to the program to start it. When I finally get both server and client working simultaneously, at least one of them crashes before I get to try the program. The only things i could get it to do were remotely turn Winamp On/Off and play/stop current song, but that's it. I was able to download song list to my Pocket PC, but program crashes before I can try queueing up another song selection. Too bad, it looked promising, but it's easier to just use the built-in terminal client on my iPAQ.
