TV Junkies Dream! [Posted on 2007-03-29]
Sony has done for "place shifting" what Tivo did for "time shifting" Hook this device up to your Tivo and you have TV anytime AND anywhere! The best of both worlds.Installation was easy. it took less than 10 minutes to get it going. It does require some basic computer and wireless network experience. Shortly after I took it out of the box i was watching TV on my Playstation PSP and on my laptop computer.
Location Free : different from the Slingbox [Posted on 2007-09-26]
To watch the home TV on a computer outside of the home, Slingbox is better. Changing channels is a lot easier on Slingmedia Player than with Location Free, and the Slingbox connection is a lot more consistent than Location Free.
However, I love using Location Free with my portable PSP at home. It allows me to watch the news in bed, while my wife watches Lifetime on the flat screen. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and the small (bit excellent) screen of the PSP allows me to watch TV without waking up my wife.
LocationLOCKED NOT LocationFree [Posted on 2007-11-25]
Even though it can be a great product and easy to setup. It does NOT deliver. Works great within the house. Sony tech support can NOT make it work anywhere else. they do not know WHY or HOW to access it over the internet thus LocationLOCKED. Cannot recommend it unless if happy to use around the house ONLY!
This does work outside of the house like coffee shops and anywhere theres an internet signal,but is a pain to setup!!!!!!! [Posted on 2008-03-27]
First I thought this product can only work in the house but than I read the manual and it told me that I have to have a router that has upnp abilities or port forwarding. That is the only way you can connect to the base station through the internet. If you do not set your router up with upnp or port forwarding than you can only watch tv in your house through your own internet service only. I only spent $50 so I thought it was worth the money but I wouldn't spend more than that.
Fantastic! Sony has made the Client Software FREE!!! [Posted on 2008-05-12]
Works great. Must have for any PSP or laptop owner. If you set up your own home network you can set this up! It is really easy, follow the included instructions. Sony has made the client program FREE now! You may have as many copys as you may need. I have it running on 2 laptops and my PSP. Just like the slingbox you can only one at a time.
