Guys,

I was thinking we needed a daemon that could talk to a "lot" of the 
remote-control capable devices out there. There are so many protocols:

  - avrcp (newer headsets)
  - ericsson (AT commands)
  - bemused (symbian app, java app)
  - hid (newer ericssons)

I was thinking we would need avrcp eventually for good headset support. 
Maybe the way to go is to add it to a receiver that can do one of these 
other protocols to give it broader coverage. HID could probably be 
dropped off the list of requirements as long as the older ericsson 
protocol is available on those devices.
