Hi Adrian,
Orb is a completely different animal. What makes Slingbox good is that you
can plug it directly into your TV/Video/satellite box via Scart, and then
network it, then view your TV over the web from your satellite box anywhere
in the world, as long as you have an Internet connection. I don't think you
can do that with Orb.
I am wondering though whether Slingbox is accessible.
Have a look though at http://uk.slingmedia.com for more info.
All the best
Steve

Dean - I haven't tried slingbox but have played around a bit with orb which
does a similar thing certainly for music and transfering files anyway, not
sure if it does tv/video. Although I have accessed it remotely from another
pc I haven't yet tried accessing it from my phone so don't know about the
symbian client and talks, give it a try.

Hi,
Has anyone used a sling box to stream music or files to their PC or to their
phone from their PC? I know its available for series 60 mobiles but wasn't
sure how the PC or the Mobile phone apps were for accessibility.
