Inventions
One of the best inventions of 2005 (ranked by Popular Science, BusinessWeek, Time, Cnet and many more) is the Slingbox (www.slingmedia.com). It costs somewhere about $250. Hook it into the TV at home and watch your favorite channels anywhere! So now I can send it to India, hook one end into the cable receiver (set top box), the other end into the router (connecting to the internet) and then watch / record my favorite shows sitting right here in USA!
Slingmedia doesn't charge for any content, only the one time charge for the initial purchase. So all the Mom's and Dad's visiting India, don’t have to miss any of their regular shows :) I wonder though how effective it would be with the DSL speeds back in India.
Check it out here and here and here.
