    Saw this app in the app store and it looks good, it's for streaming video from a pc. it's 8 euro however and i was wondering if anyone got it yet and if it is worth the money, can you stream over 3g with it either on 128kbps upload?:confused:

    Orb is great, it works very well over 3G and Wifi, acceptable over edge for music, 3g music is perfect quality 128Kbps or higher, video is very good depending on signal quality, but Orb is clever in that it adjusts the video quality to match the signal quality rather than trying to achieve 320Kbps and having to buffer every 20 seconds, so you get an uninterrupted video with varying quality depending on the signal.

    The only downside is that you can't Video out a stream to a tv using Orb, this is a problem they have admitted to, Apple won't allow them use the Video out function at the moment but they are working on it.

    Great for accessing your photo collection and any doc you need to have at hand too.
