I am sitting in my office listening to an MP3 file on my desktop wondering if it's possible to do this with the NX series over WiFi. Any ideas?

When my wifi worked I went to a site that I made with a quicktime movie and was able to download and play it right from the web browser on the clie.

Downloading is not quite the same as streaming:).

You can stream video (no audio) over wireless devices (BT or WiFi) using Tealpoint (http://www.tealpoint.com) TealMovie (http://www.tealpoint.com/softmovi.htm) while your PC act as a server.

Will it stream video to the memory stick?

I'd really like to see support for streaming MP3 (Shoutcast) via the wireless LAN card. I wonder how hard that could be--the NX can play local MP3's, why not streamed MP3's from the network.

Anyone see a way to do this. There are so many good internet radio stations. I'd like to be able to listen to them on my NX-60.

Is the processor speed really fast enough? I mean, it sometimes takes Netfront (sorry Larry, har-har) almost forever to load a page. I figured that it was a processor issue (or maybe the wifi card?)

I don't have the answer, I'm just asking the question ;)

It's not the card, the card is very good. The main issue is the poor primative driver.

Never heard of NetFront...:D

would sending to the MS be a stream or a download?

It all depends, if it can be seen or heard on the fly, it's streaming. If you have to wait until the whole file is downloaded, then it's a download.
