MP3 Player for Leapster Devices:
Unfortunately the Leapster screen size just doesn't have space for playlist AND cover art and simply scaling the MP3 Player for LeapPad produced ugly results with unreadable tiny fonts, so I started from scratch (dewplayer-playlist-cover.swf) and skinned it in the style of Winamp.
All of the on-screen buttons work as expected, the volume slider can be used for fine volume adjustments if used alongside the Leapster's built in volume controls, future potential to remap (L - Prev track, R - Next Track, etc..), Unfortunately the Leapster doesn't recognize the home button while running custom apps, simply power off to reboot the device (Will add exit button...)
Differences in the Leapster version:

Differences in the Leapster version:
- Screen resolution (320x240px/6400x4800twips)
- Lack of Cover Art display area (shown offscreen, not removed)
- Lack of Playlist info display area (shown offscreen, not removed)
- No ID3 Tags/hidden Track info (This looks like a Leapster issue, as the function for reading ID3 Tags works on LeapPad 3)
