On first glance that seems very redundant, since you'd require adding pretty much
everything that's already provided by a PC with MP3-decoding software.
But on a similar note, has anyone thought of a web browser on the TI-85/86? That
would just require a TI-modem be developed (which would have many uses), and some
way of fitting stuff onto the screen (it would probably be a lot like Lynx as a
browser). File it under "neat, but pointless," I guess. :-)
