The amusing bit is that X10 has been doling out the possible uses for this
thing one at a time. First it was the wireless camera, then "DVD
Anywhere", now "MP3 Anywhere", when there is nothing different but which
wires you plug into the back of the thing. It does video and stereo
audio, that's it. And no one seems to have realized this, including
Slashdot, stating that the "software" that came with the MP3 one was a
Winamp plugin, so let's hope it works with Linux.
