Re: Bathroom PC access
Fixing speakers into the bathroom, connected to another PC/amp elsewhere is a relatively easy task.

Then all you need is an Ericsson or SonyEricsson mobile with Bluetooth, a PC BT adaptor and a bit of software called PCControl. It allows you to use your mobile to control Winamp, listing all the titles in the current playlist on the phone's display. Of course you can pause, skip and alter the volume and so on aswell.

You can probably get one of the old monochrome Ericssons very cheaply on eBay now, and a USB Bluetooth adaptor will set you back about £20. Of course, the mobile won't be waterproof, but it's got all the other qualities you need -- and you can even send and receive texts and calls in the bath!
