I digitize all movies at home and put them on my network, I can stream them right to my iphone over 3G with the Orb app. In addition, if I added a tv tuner to my pc, I could stream live tv shows if I wanted to. Havent' taken the time to do this, as there's plenty for me to watch on the phone without it.


Point is, it's possible to do right now even with 3G. When they 4G up and rolling it'll be even better
Vic, I have a dual tuner Hauppauge PVR 500 pci card if you wanna try it. It's brand new off RMI. I'll never use it.
It doesn't support HD, I don't believe, but it'd be a costless trial for ya.
I have the remotes and stuff somewhere, too.
I'd love to see how it works out for you.
Here's the stuff you need to stream HD.
I checked out RDM+ and talked to Gainey. It's just like Logmein Ignition.
I previewed logmein pro2. It is absolutely awesome. 30 bucks for the app, 65 bucks a year for the subscription, allows you access to one remote computer. You can add additional computers for an increased fee, like your work machine and laptop and stuff, if so desired.
It literally does everything, including file transfer and streaming sound and video.
It looks like that's the way I'll go, especially if the tablet is released.
It'd solve everything. Then if I wanted to stream my tv, I just add the tuner I linked up there.
I'm not so into tv, especially since I can get it all on the intersne, but I might do that sometime down the road.
The coolness is that I can do everything from my phone as from my desk.
I can also grab my desk here from my laptop, if I so desire. That's in with the pro2 subscription. It goes by how many computers you wish to access, but you can access that computer from anywhere, at any other computer.
That kicks ass, especially since I just use my laptop as a poor mirror extension of my main rig
One other thing...
I use three monitors on my desk. Logmein has multiple monitor support.
I could find nothing it would not do, and I beat on it like it owed me money.
Pro2 is free for a month (or 120 hours). Try it out. You can check the features with your laptop or any other computer. I sat here and ran my main rig with my laptop to see how it worked, that way I didn't have to pay 30 bucks for the iPhone app.
