Large media files can quickly overload a notebook's hard drive and they certainly won't fit on most cell phones or PDAs. That's where Orb Networks comes in. The Web-based service streams music, video, and photos from your Windows XP PC to other Web-connected devices, including any notebook, many PDAs (generally including PocketPCs, but not Palms), and Microsoft Smartphone cell phones. If your home PC has a TV tuner, you can even watch live television on your portable device."</i><br /><br />Well, it seems PC World doesn't share my opinion that Orb isn't worth keeping - they've posted a review that's largely complimentary.
