I understand Crestron has a clamshell snap-on that goes over the iPad and provides buttons. Naturally it is for a crestron system. IMHO it will be too big and unwieldly. Maybe I am just used to it, but the 9800 is as large as I would want to go although the iPad would make it a lot easier on my eyes as I only need glasses for reading not watching movies/TV
The obvious thing would be something like Crestron's attachment, but for the ipod touch. Number buttons, and simple transport controls (previous, next, play, pause, stop, rew, FFWD) could be great (and a built in IR transmitter to allow for those of us not wanting to use wifi to a seperate module for IR).
As "SHN" mentioned though I prefer an open source solution, so something android based for something like one of the better HTC models would work.
