The Danish company Homelinc has made available a handy device called PalmButler. It makes anything on your PC available anywhere in the house. You can even turn your PC on or off from another room.
The Palmbutler Linkbox converts the PC's sound and video signal into a radio- and TV channel, which in turn is distributed through the home's antenna network. The Palmbutler software creates a menu on your TV, showing the PC's digital media. This makes it easy to navigate through the PC's movies, music or photo files. The TV-menu can be modified to fit your requirements. Scripting allows you to extend its capabilities. With the wireless remote control you can navigate through the PC's digital media, no matter where you are in your home. The remote control communicates wirelessly with the PC and has an indoor range of 40 meters. There is no US distributor yet. |
According to the Homelinc if you have a broadband connection you can watch music videos and play other streaming media such as Internet radio through your stereo. You can try the Palmbutler software before you decide to buy Palmbutler to get an idea as to how the sytem will work.
