"During the 3GSM World Congress, i-mate previewed its next product-line which unwires multimedia from the Windows Vista Media Center PC. This new service gives the i-mate Ultimate users access to the Windows Vista Media by either being connected through a home W-LAN or any other broadband connection. The new i-mate Ultimate devices can be enhanced with an i-mate self-developed server/client solution which gives full access to all media files on a compatible (i-mate) Media Center PC. If you know Orb or the Slingbox - you know the potential this solution has since it includes access to recorded TV shows as well as access to live TV, video and audio files as well as photos"
While there are no Windows Mobile Standard (Smartphone) devices in the i-mate Ultimate lineup, that could change in the future! Even if a Windows Mobile Standard device is never a part of the lineup, I still would like to take this time to point out that what i-mate is doing here is exactly what the industry needs! While there are still some of us that feel business and pleasure should be separated, I love the idea of having access to my media at all times! Personally, I'm surprised that Microsoft hasn't already developed their own software solution to let users tap into their media on the go.
