A quick review of Gmote for Android smartphones, demonstrated on a T-Mobile G1.
Gmote is a remote controller which enables you to play media files across a network. You can also use it as a wireless network mouse. For more info about Gmote, see http://www.gmote.org.

Sound level is a bit low. Sorry about that!
@eleven38 not sure what you mean by wifi on the pc?? i think you mean wireless?? but no, you just need both devices to be connected to the same network, e.g. PC pluged into wireless router - phone connected to the wifi. its all on the same network

@dawnspired or you can use this along with bluetooth earphones to get comfy in your bed and set up a movie using the your phone all completely wirelessly... this is assuming u have a decent screen setup to watch movies on opposite ur bed like i do.

As an alternative to this you can use the mouse (or touch pad) from your pc/laptop and browse for "media files on your pc"
Besides that you can use the actual keyboard...

It only works on computers on the same network, but in theory, if you can log into your network remotely, then it might work. Haven't tried it though.

Good thinking! But you'd have to install the Gmote server on their machine and it would need to be on the same network.
