Microsoft isn't the first to try such a device to device entertainment network. Sony PSP also has this function for gaming and despite all of the hype, it really hasn't taken off. It is a function of the device not an earth shaking technology shift. After all, devices have been "talking" for years. The one concern about portable devices of any kind is to avoid Scope Creep, or trying to jam too much into a small device. No one has gotten the hand held device right yet. Thus, the jury is still out. I would have to say that the jury is still out on this one. Microsoft isn’t the first to try such a device to device entertainment network.

I hope to see great things from the wifi broadcasting capabilities of these devices. It's a definite leap forward in technology and should advance the design of all other players. I happen to agree.
