Orb goes iPhone

The folks behind Orb, the application/service that allows you to stream content from your PC to other devices, just announced the iPhone support. Now Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) handset’s users are able to access all the content from their PC — including TV — to their shiny device. Naturally, iPod Touch is also supported but it is required, however, that both iPhone and/or iPod are jailbroken. And while we have nothing against that — on the contrary, we support iPhone being totally open — I’m curious to see how will Apple react to this. I guess Orb could argue this is just a temporary solution, until the new firmware with third-party apps becomes available. In the meantime, you can grab OrbLive from “Multimedia” menu in the Installer.app, or check out the short video demonstration of Orb in “iPhone action” after the jump.
