	You could just point a browser on the Audrey at http://mfd_host:2345/, 
and use the very crude http interface.

	One could conceivably write a full front end for the audrey. If 
there's enough CPU power there, it could just be compiled against 
libmfdclient. Since that has quite a few threads in it, not sure of the 
audrey would be up to it though (?).
