Question
Hello,

Please see the below details for your easy understanding of what i'd like to get done.

Room 1:
Computer (with Windows XP)
All my MP3s are on this computer
Wireless Internet Connection available

Room 2:
iPAD
iPod docking station
Wireless Connection available.

I'd like to find a way to play the music that's on my computer in Room 1 on the iPod Docking station (or another HiFi system perhaps) wirelessly. I have an app. on my iPad called "Remote" which controls the music on my computer (in Room 1); however, the music is still played from the same computer.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Issa

What about this solution?

http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=

(If the entire URL did not come through you can find this on Dell and use search terms of Sound  Blaster wireless and you should find it.)

There are other such devices that you can find with a few google clicks.

Also, may I refer you to the Amazon "connected home" page which has some good tutorial ideas for your consideration:

(If the above complete url did not come through you can search for it on amazon.com with connected home search terms.)

Hope this inspires a good solution for you.
