Very nice :)

@clodester I believe it would work if you have Windows using Internet Connection Sharing (and I am sure there is an equivalent for Mac OS & Linux). I am not 100% sure if you might need a cross-over cable. Just Google for "Internet Connection Sharing" and you should get info!

@ghostbust555 This is based on the Duemilinove, but I do not have a Wishield at the moment. I think they use a different library so it would need a rewrite of the software.

This is interesting. I want to have a piece of art that I can email. It would recieve the email wirelessly and then it would affect the art. Perhaps it could display the subject and parts of it could move based on commands in the body.
do you think an arduino is a good choice for that?

@baloneyjazz Sure, you could probably do that with an Arduino, but I suspect you would still need the PHP pre-processor on the email since the Arduino since I don't think you could do all the text processing on board. Please see my blog write up.

@torchris1 I think I would do almost everything on a Web server and the art would just grab some text from the Web site.

@baloneyjazz Yes, that would work. Check out my blog for more on setting up TCP/IP client-server systems with the Arduino.

the arduino needs to have a ethernet shield and cable obviously, but do you plug the ethernet cable int your router or will it still work if you plug it into a computer/laptop which is on the wireless network?

@clodester You would need to use something called a "cross over" cable. Just Google and you can find out how to make or buy one.
