| another added addition to a very nice product.
what you need is the hardware, its like a little box that connects up to you cable line and pc.. from there you can stream your content to the any location free enabled device (802.11b min)
however, i am still not upgrading.. homebrew outweighs this for me at the moment. |

| clarify
here's what i mean
instead of buying their hardware and going:
Cable
Location Free Device
Video Stream
just download/buy some software that does the job:
Cable
TV Card (PC)
Location Free Compatible Software
Video Stream
but i doubt this exists yet... |

| Bitter Irony?
I'm considering giving out Sony PSP or the Slingbox as Holiday gifts to my clients.
The irony is that I just ordered my Slingbox yesterday to test it out!
Should I be considering the Sony platform for time-shifting instead so that it can be more about both gaming and TV anywhere?
ug!

Re: clarify
My guess would be no, since Sony engages in proprietary mania, but I'm still reading up on the device.... |

Re: Bitter Irony?
If it works as good/better as Slingbox, I'd say yeah. Base-station would allow you to play on PSP or laptop, whereas Slingbox would restrict you to laptop.... |

| I was also wondering (before the Sony announcement) if a Slingbox would ever let you play your XBOX or PS/2 remotely on your PC...that'd be cool.

Re: tv card
said by rhinorc  :so, is there software you can download/buy for your computer to use your TV card's capability with Location Free? I wonder that as well. One of my PCs at home is a Media PC with Windows XP Media Center Edtion with the record shows (like Tivo) and all that good stuff built it and I have a wireless router so is there anything out there to get those working to eliminate the $300 device?

| More interested in home-brewn and emulators.
Television is something that turns me into a zombie. You sit there looking like a complete fool staring at an inanimate object.
This does not jive, or even remotely corrolate, with the general point or goal of a portable *GAMING* system.
I'm more interested in seeing NES, SNES, Genesis, and PCE/TG16 emulators come out for the PSP. There are a few NES emulators, but all require firmware 1.0 (which USA folk cannot use -- sigh...). There's one working SNES emulator, which is quite slow (SNES9x ported, and runs about ~25% too slow). Haven't tried Genesis or PCE/TG16 stuff yet.
Now that there's a working 1.5 downgrade method available (reason NOT to upgrade to 2.0, 2.1, or 2.5! Don't do it!), I'm a lot more happier with my purchase...

What Koitsu said. Not going to be upgrading my PSP. FYI, you don't need firmware 1.0 to run any homebrew, just about everything works just fine with version 1.5 and the exploit tool. The NES emulator NesterJ works very well.
The times I want to use a PSP are primarily when I'm not around a WiFi network anyway. This TV anywhere idea is interesting but not practical for me.

| SONY Explanation?
Where does SONY explain what "location-free TV" is?
I don't see the effective pitch that the slingmedia.com site has to tell you what it is and how it works and why you gotta have it?
Anyone got a link?

What do you guys think? Will it be a be a One sided match where IPOD wins like it is in the Music IPOD or
Sony will be market leader in portable video players ? |

| Why do people need this? Do we really have to have TV everywhere we go? And now they expect ISP's to upgrade upstream bandwidth just so that some dork can watch his 2" TV screen everywhere he goes? Aren't there much more important priorities in the world than this?

1 edit | iPod "tv" screen? Anyways, the PSP screen is a lot larger than the 5th gen iPod that has video support. And 16:9, too. |
