Microsoft Windows Mobile: Mobile Media Without Limits
Posted by Jason Dunn in "ARTICLE" @ 08:00 AM
"Do you miss your favorite songs when you leave home? Now you don't have to. Thanks to a free online service and your Windows Mobile powered device, they’re available whenever you have a connection to the Internet. 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. I’m already addicted to Orb. Even though memory cards continue to drop in price, I still can’t get one big enough to hold my collection. Even if you have a two-gigabyte memory card packed with music, there's a good chance you have many more gigabytes worth of digital media sitting on your personal computer. That's where Orb comes into play. If you're sitting in an airport lounge halfway across the world and you're itching to listen to one of your favorite tracks at home, you can. As Orb puts it, it's "home entertainment without the home.""
Our very own Darius Wey has put together a great article on Orb, a software-based solution for accessing all your media, wherever you are. If you haven't given Orb a try (it's free), give this a read and I bet you'll want to take it for a spin!
