Apple is rumored to be hiring engineers/programmers to incorporate such 
capabilities into the next-gen
Mac OS X/iPhone systems and I would expect that Microsoft is also. Given 
this, the ability to interface
 with built-in resources should be a high priority for this and any 
other new SL i/o protocol.
