Geo location services with cell phones are going to be a hot and will have some new legal and social effects in the coming years.

Livestation, a service which will challenge the Slingbox in streaming your TV to a remote computer.

By using the Microsoft’s Flash-like Silverlight plugin will allow any computer to display TV either in a stand-alone window or in a web browser. Thereby allowing Windows users, soon the Mac and potentially even Windows Mobile cell phones to have TV on the go.

It is in private beta right now and should hit the market in October of this year.
