NEWS: Orb MyCasting service now available for N800
Another media sharing service announced. This one I really like because it's served from your own PC!

Re: NEWS: Orb MyCasting service now available for N800
Can anybody tell me what is so "N800" specific bout this version of Orb?
it seems just Orb 2.0 to me |
Re: NEWS: Orb MyCasting service now available for N800
I have only read the basics of what Orb can do, and it definitely sounds intriguing. With my PC at home having a TV tuner card with Cable hooked up to it and this application, certainly sounds like a way to watch TV on my N800 when it's hooked in to a network. I keep seeing it say that it is free, is there a catch (to the Orb software/service being free)?

Only problem is that it turns out that you need a PC with XP (or 2K, etc..) to go along with your N800....no support for Mac OSX or Linux that I saw...
:rolleyes: |
Re: NEWS: Orb MyCasting service now available for N800
I've been using Orb for ages. Works really well and my choice for streaming stuff to my mobile devices.
Works at home, and on the road. It already worked with the N800, and my N80 and my older S60 Nokia mobilephone. Don't see what's the big announcement.... Luke |

I wasn't even aware of the service, so I thought it was something new when I found the press release. Sorry for the confusion.
I'm wondering what the deal is, myself... EDIT: ah-- the login is different on the tablet vs the PC. I'm guessing what is novel is N800 detection. |

Hi Texrat,
No problem. Our queries are mostly thoughts aloud to the company...:) |

Re: Orb MyCasting on the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet
Am I wrong or there is no specific software to be installed on the N800?
Once the software has been installed on the PC (any chance to see any Linux or MacOSX version coming soon?), you simply need to connect to https://mycast.orb.com using Opera on the N800, or is there anything I'm missing? What is this "N800 software from Org" they're mentioning?! |
