New article published by Microsoft: who needs Sling Box if one can get Orb for FREE? March 14, 2006 [General] | By Edward J. R. Before buying expensive hardware from unfriendly companies, feel free to explore other, free options like Orb: Orb gives you unlimited access to the media stored on your personal computer. It streams digital media on your PC—whether it’s a favorite song or a favorite television show—to your smartphone or Pocket PC. ... In addition to streaming the media on your home computer, Orb also makes it easier to access information. You can get localized weather reports (via AccuWeather), global access to Web site bookmarks and e-mail contacts (with support for multiple Web mail providers), and stock information. You can also download and install additional plug-ins such as V4S, which brings the Skype voicemail service to Orb, and DVR Everywhere, which extends TiVo to any 'connected' device. With Orb, you are no longer restricted to the files you remembered to take with you or the capacity of your storage card. You have instant access to music to perfectly match your mood—even if your mood changed dramatically since the last time you synced your device. To read this article click here. As you can see Orb offers much more than just mere remote viewing of TV with help of Windows Mobile phones... Another interesting article about using Orb with Windows Mobile is here.
