Media Center Remote Control Plug-in for PPC Tablet
Compatible with QVGA and VGA Pocket PCs

With PPC Tablet (http://www.aacompserv.com/AACompWeb/Modules/PPCTablet/WhatIsIt.aspx) and this Media Center plug-in, you can turn your Pocket PC into a fully-functional remote that works over any ActiveSync connection or wired/wireless network connection. The Media Center plug-in has been designed solely for use in Windows XP Media Center Edition, and contains all the familiar buttons of a standard Media Center remote.

Installation
Download the Media Center plug-in and extract the contents of the ZIP archive to the PPC Tablet installation folder on your Pocket PC (usually, \Program Files\PPC Tablet\). Launch the PPC Tablet Client, select Media Center from the profiles list, then tap the "Load Profile" button. Next, enter the host name or IP address of the Media Center Edition PC, modify any additional options as required, then tap "Connect".

Once connected, tap the Green Button on the Media Center plug-in to begin.

Notes
For directional navigation, alongside its on-screen buttons, the Media Center plug-in also supports the D-pad and action button on the Pocket PC. You can also use SIPs where text-based entry is required (e.g. Messenger).
