Hello,
I've made a simple remote for Window Mobile devices, which can be found at www.acquasys.com/boxeeremote (http://www.acquasys.com/boxeeremote).

Features:
Navigation mode: up, down, left, right, select, back, home and exit
Play mode: play, pause, stop, rewind, forward, previous, next, volume up, volume down, mute
Input mode: allows text input into Boxee (hardware keyboard supported)
Other functions: toggle fullscreen, suspend
Media information: title, artist, season/episode, duration, summary, thumbnail etc.
Hardware keys supported (up, down, left, right, select, vol up, vol down)
Automatic pause/notification on phone call or SMS
How to use it:
First step is to inform in program settings the address (IP or host name) of the machine where Boxee is running on. Alternatively use the "Discover" command and the remote will try to locate it (see note below).
Press "Mode" to alternate between the three available ways to control Boxee: Navigation, Play or Input.
Click thumbnail to obtain more information about the media currently playing.
Known issues/limitations:
Discovery function is still unstable. If it does not work, click on "Discover" again to cancel the operation and then enter the server address manually in program settings. If commands still do not work, check if Boxee's webserver is active (program settings).
Tested with Boxee Beta for Windows and HTC Touch Pro.
History
Version 0.92
- Fixed: volume indicators, hardware keyboard input
- Added: pause on SMS / notifications, toggle fullscreen
Version 0.91
- Public release
