It would be a good idea for us to put together a list of feature requirements. (must haves, nice to haves, don't wants, etc)

I highly value a web interface, which could essentially emulate the empeg weblite.

Since there would be no Emplode app, at least in the way I'm approaching this, the process(es) for building playlists would need to be as simple as possible. (I have no time/interest in spending hours recreating the playlists as they currently exist on my empegs via touchscreen. Perhaps it could be accomplished easily enough via the weblite-esque http interface mentioned above.

Having said those things, playing music on an Android device is very easy. The MediaPlayer API is rich and there is lots of documentation. It would be a fun project for sure.
