For those of you who do not yet know what Orb is, Orb has developed an award winning service that combines the use of an internet media portal and a proprietary software application. Orb leverages the best in already available technology (hi-speed broadband, Wi-Fi, wireless internet access and sophisticated portable devices) to provide a brand new way for people to connect with their digital media in the manner “how, when and where” they most desire. In short, Orb provides the ability to “MyCast”. MyCasting gives the user instant access to photos, music, videos, live television, and other digital content on their home PC at anytime and from any internet-connected device, such as a mobile phone, PDA or laptop. MyCasting is media anywhere.

Sounds cool!

Pointless article IMHO! It's obvious that Orb will be compatible with Android. I would have waited to publish when information such as release date was available.

How about if you put it in quotes?

Either way, I wanted to share that with other members who might not know what Orb is.

Such as myself.

Yeah Orb is amazing. Very handy when your out and about.

Sounds like it.

Thank you for sharing. I'll look more into this.

Is there going to be a monthly charge for this app?

Orb is a free service so I believe it will be free. Don't quote me on that, its a whole different ball game.
