The A2DP I think is for the Mic, and the ABRCP has a fast forward, rewind..

If they're going to make it available to download more widely it might be a good choice for a secondary OS to use when I can't wait for Windows to boot. Yes, I’d be keen to see some too.

It's pretty slick. The 1000 does already have a lot of stuff preloaded such as OpenOffice. bluemonq, I’ll be doing a video of the Mini MI soon that will show the s/w repository. It’s pretty slick.
