Sony DVD JukeBox and RS232

Recently i had to play with the RS232 protocol and i found a very interesting opensource project
on sourceforge. Windows program to control your Sony DVP-CX777ES 400-disc DVD player via its RS232 port connected to the serial port of your computer.
The project includes documentation and all source to be able to control the Sony DVP-CX777ES 400 DVD jukebox using a RS232 controller. This project is quite impressive and i am hoping to be able to control a Sony Jukebox for a custom DVD on demand at home and then be able to link the video output of the jukebox with a USB HDTV OnAirSolution Nvidia Box to perform overlay on the PC.

I would really love Optoma to provide the RS232 protocol documentation to control optoma video projector as well to have a complete entertainment system from one PC APP control with a unique remote control off course over bluetooth :) So where are the bluetooth TV/Like remote control ??
