yeah, I have no problem with setting up mpd clients... I think I have
pmix installed on my phone... just that I could never get everything
to play nice (even on LAN) I could fiddle... but I thought it'd be
cool to do it by SMS too :P Mainly 'cause I have free texts, it'll
cost me nothing to receive and it's more than a bit silly :P

Thanks for the links :) Will definitely look into them some more :)
