Vongo LogoFor those of you that own an Xbox 360 you are probably aware that if you hook your Xbox 360 up to the internet, then you can connect to Xbox Live where you can play games over the internet. You are also able to purchase downloadable videos, movies and games from the Xbox Live Marketplace.

When it comes to the line-up of movies and TV shows available to download off the Xbox Live Marketplace there is a serious lack of a decent selection. But don’t despair just yet because you can also get movies from Vongo too.

Vongo offers unlimited movie downloads to your PC for $9.99 a month (USA only) and you can then easily stream these movies from your PC to your Xbox 360. Vongo make it sound pretty easy:

"The Xbox 360 will automatically check to see which Windows XP or Vista-based devices are registered on the network and ask the user whether they want to access content, such as their Vongo movies, from that PC. This is a simple and easy approach that solves past problems that required configuration and technical knowledge by the user."

Xbox 360Exciting news has come out of Microsoft this month stating that the Xbox will be launching a Web TV service towards the end of this year.

Whether you can get the service depends on how good your internet connection is since a beefy connection will be needed so you can watch and record two high definition web TV channels and 2 standard definition channels simultaneously.

The Web TV edition of the Xbox should feature a 120GB hard drive, HDMI ports, will come with DVR functionality and you will be able to take advantage of the Xbox 360 community-based features, such as voice chat, sending and receiving text and voice messages, and accessing Xbox Live Marketplace, while watching TV. You can also play games while recording web TV.

BluOnyx

Agere Systems has announced the BluOnyx mobile content server. This is a completely unique device that is a little difficult to sum up in a few words but I’ll go for it. Here’s how it works:

  • You copy media files from your PC onto your BluOnyx
  • You take your BluOnyx out and about with you
  • You use the BluOnyx to:
    1. copy, backup and store data like a regular memory stick
    2. copy data wirelessly from your cell phone or portable media players for backup to BluOnyx
    3. stream video or other media to single or multiple cell phones from BluOnyx
