Product Description Sony's LF-PK1 Location Free Player Pack, which includes the LocationFree base station and the LocationFree Player software, enable you to watch TV and your favorite videos both at home and on the go with your Playstation Portable (PSP) or Windows-based PC. The base station can be accessed via the internet while you're away from home, enabling you to view live TV, recorded TV (via a digital video recorder, or DVR), and DVDs. It also frees you from having to be tethered to your television in your own home, enabling you to use your laptop or desktop PC as your TV via your home LAN. Customer Reviews Super product Ok its expensive... The picture is great... Easy to setup... Controls even Tivo. I also have owned the slingbox which is super also. If you have a PSP then get the location free. If you don't have a PSP then the slingbox is good choice. Only drawback is Sony is greedy or desperate to sell the PC client software for $30 dollars(Pathetic). However, the software is pretty nice. Streaming your TV to Yoursefl! If you need to stream to a PSP, use Sony's LocationFree. If you want to stream to Pocket PC, check out the Slingbox. Both products stream to a PC. Compare the licensing cost of the clients for PC Streaming.

Works out quite nicely. Difficult to install Installed using the quick guide and could not get my computer to recognize the base unit. After trial and error I found that my anti virus software was blocking it on my network. There is a installation DVD that actually describes this but doesn't do it in detail. Then I needed to set up my router differently to set it up for "on the go" use (hotspots, and remote). After getting it up and running, the picture quality was really bad. I adjusted the "rate" manually and it works pretty well, with average picture quality. I can control my Tivo using the remote on-screen. I have yet to use it "on the go" at a hotspot, but I will try that next. I bought this instead of the slingbox even though it's cheaper, because it's a Sony. I'm not sure if the picture quality is better with a slingbox. I would rate it a 3 out of 5 because of the difficult installation.
