hanging around so I am thinking of hacking that and loading:
Firefly Media Server (if it stille exists)
MediaTomb <http://www.jpkessler.de/mybookupnp/index.html>
Twonky Media <http://mybookworld.wikidot.com/forum/t-46375/twonkymedia-on-mybook-possible-clue>
Ushare <http://www.mybookworldedition.co.nr/ushare.html>
Any others please? Any suggestions on what is best?
That covers media - next iCal, iPhoto, Address Book?
