I assume you've already bumped into the Android DACP client. It's open-source and all that, and appears roughly equivalent to Apple's Remote app. I've been pondering a jump from my iPhone to Android, given the potential coolness of the new Googlephone, and this was one of the required features for me.

I believe I tried out a very early-on version of that app (like, a little over a year ago when I first got my G1). It didn't work too well then, but I'm sure it's better by now. I can test it out if you like.

Unfortunately it doesn't do what I need. I don't need to control an iTunes installation, I need to control an AppleTV, which none of the Android remote apps seem to do.
