From your desktop to Android handset: Winamp makes the jump

We noticed this little tidbit hit the Android Market on Wednesday night. Winamp's official app has come to Android, in beta form, for Android 2.1 and higher handsets.

Winamp is a popular desktop music player that’s been around since 1997, written by Nullsoft.
Here's how it's described:

Winamp for Android (beta) offers a complete media management solution for 2.1 OS & above. Sync your music from the Winamp desktop player over USB or Wi-Fi. Learn more - http://redir.su/2564.

Other features: persistent audio playback controls, play queue, scrobbling, playlist shortcuts, lock screen & widget player.

Winamp for Android wireless syncing requires, of course, a Winamp desktop application. It's that feature that sets Winamp apart from others in the crowded third-party Android media player market. If you have Winamp on your desktop, you'll want it on Android, as well. You.ll need at least the 5.59 desktop beta.

Additional details: there is a desktop widget, lock screen integration (as noted in their blurb) and yes, Last.fm scrobbling too.
