The proliferation of games on a mobile Xbox based on Zune was supposed to work best by friends sharing their favorite Xbox Live Arcade games this way.

The rest if file format compatibility across platforms. First that the chosen file formats supported by Beaming are open and not proprietary. How do you control intellectual property on such a system, especially after it is hacked?

@jcb82, no, but there was this odd rumour that Zune in Quebec meant pecker.. so you spread music around by squirting streaming data at your friends via wi-fi.. shame J Allard... Shame.

despite the naming, the concept seems to be good.
in future news, numerous malwares exploit 'beaming', formerly known as 'squirting'.

Oh wow, that brings me back the days of pointing two Palm devices at each other to beam apps and contact info. History really is circular, isn't it?

Funny, I'm busy squirting out data on a regular basis:

But now I'm gonna be busy chargin' mah laser...

You mean the article was written by Kev Parrish?

And considering how many devices come with WiFi.

Its going to open a new can of worms in terms of malware and mischief.

Shame about the name change. Would have been awsome to create a new virus for this networking feature, and call it... Squirtle!

Beaming ... aiming my Pentium 1 laptop equipped with a Infrared Transmitter at a compatible Laserjet printer for wireless printing back in the day.
