Sony LocationFree gives you local TV anywhere

I caught off Robin Good's blog that Sony LocationFree's going head-to-head with the SlingBox, in wirelessly streaming local TV programming to anywhere you have a broadband Internet connection. This is a market I've felt is going to be huge, once WiMax gets a little solid footing nationally so we won't have to worry about range issues for hotspots, and in convergence with other platforms like PC-based DVR-style recording.

Imagine that...you'll be able to bring your laptop to a buddy's house who doesn't have cable and watch the game. If you run the inputs into a projection device, you've got yourself a little makeshift theater.

Keep an eye on this...it's going to be big.
