Well this is an interesting application, if only for the possible extensions you might happen to get it to work with. We found this little application for sale on a Japanese website, and it's suppose to let you watch TV on your Pocket PCs, regardless of where you happen to be in the world.

The app, called Netfront LocationFree Player, says (in mechanized English translation) that it allows "you connect to the based station by way of LAN or Luther, to enjoy television program and the program etc. which was videotaped in the DVD recorder." The player sells for ¥ 1,980 (US$ 16) though, so it's not for everyone.

While that might be great for the Pocket PC or other PDA, we're actually thinking of how this could best be manipulated or expanded on. Some of us were imagining what it would be like if someone found a way to get this to work on the PSP. Of course, we do have Winnydows' Xvid4PSP application for that bit of video playing, but an app that lets you watch stuff automatically on the PSP around the world is also very cool.

Now, does anyone want to help us translate it more accurately?

Access, Co. recently released the English version of NetFront 3.3 web browser for Pocket PCs. Some people may consider this a late addition since the company has already introduced the Japanese version of the said web browser some time ago. In case you're in the dark about NetFront, it's a high-performance Web browser which has been successfully installed in a great number of PDAs, mobile phones, and other electronic information devices.

It is compatible with Windows Mobile 5.0 and Pocket PC2003/2003SE. In addition to compatibility with Flash and Java, it is equipped with an original display function enabling Internet browsing just like with a PC. Multi-window and other convenient functions are also equipped for browsing with a Pocket PC.

New features include full support for VGA displays, improved handling of frames, RSS and Atom Feed compatibility, pop-up blocking, web data and password manager, and page translation (from Japanese to English or vice versa) among many others. If you wanna get this baby, it will cost you roughly $30 if you're a new user, whereas, if you want an upgrade, you'll have to shell out roughly $15 bucks.
