Wireless remote iTunes control app. for Windows?

[Dovi]

Have all of my music configured via iTunes on my desktop pc, which is hooked up to the home audio system. Started using my laptop a lot more now (infact it's become my primary machine) so trying to find an app. that I can use (preferably free ) on the laptop to control the iTunes client on the desktop via the wireless connection. Both machines are running XP.

Any suggestions will be appreciated! Tried Googling and haven't found any promising Windows clients.

(Bonus if it can run on my BlackBerry too! (i.e. a web based app.))

IPhone or ipod touch with the remote app from Apple is Brilliant.

Don't have an iPhone - use a BlackBerry. But more importantly I need the app. for use on the laptop.

Do you want to use the laptop to control the desktop?
Why not just VNC into it and control it like that?

you could try

www.realvnc.com
www.tightvnc.com

both are free and its simple to set up on an internal network.

That's what I've been doing at the moment, but it would be more ideal to have an app. that simply controls iTunes via a plugin on the desktop or something. I only want control of iTunes so that whoever's working on the desktop at the time isn't bothered with whatever they're doing.

This seems simple enough.
