     I thought this service is already available in moko 'bluetooth
services' ...Otherwise it has to be there...

 We have implemented the same idea for Nokia s60 (Symbian OS) phones using
bluetooth...
*There u could control the media playing on pc..from a distance..
*You can browse net from a python interface...
*You can even control the pc through commands through your mobile..
*You can use ur mobile like a remote ...

I think it could be easily done in moko too...
