This thing will be great on the street where journalists are unable to get line of site with a satellite. The audio capability alone sounds interesting for radio broadcasts, where ISDN lines can't be used (in the middle of a field at a music festival). I can imagine having one of these integrated into an outside broadcast truck. Would be a hell of a lot cheaper in the long run than leasing ISDN too! <br><br>However, if my 3G reception is anything to go by, it will be a lot less robust than ISDN or SAT. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[K]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 3rd 2009 10:26AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sony's LocationPorter transmits video over 3G at a price you can't afford]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/03/sonys-locationporter-transmits-video-over-3g-at-a-price-you-ca/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/03/sonys-locationporter-transmits-video-over-3g-at-a-price-you-ca/</guid><description><![CDATA[But to be honest, is 352x240 going to cut it in the professional market?

Remember as well that it doesn't have to be full screen. Vision mixers can window the feed so it only takes up its native pixels. Keep in mind analogue tv only really has an effective resolution of 575 lines anyway.. its not actually that bad. Still, I agree the two card option is necessary for a usable bandwidth. \<br><br>If they made a cheaper audio only version it would more than likely be very attractive to broadcasters. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[K]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 3rd 2009 10:56AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sony's LocationPorter transmits video over 3G at a price you can't afford]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/03/sonys-locationporter-transmits-video-over-3g-at-a-price-you-ca/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/03/sonys-locationporter-transmits-video-over-3g-at-a-price-you-ca/</guid><description><![CDATA["...Viewers are totally used to low resolution..."<br><br>You forgot to mention two more reasons why: YouTube and cell phone screen.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Electromodo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 3rd 2009 11:23AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sony's LocationPorter transmits video over 3G at a price you can't afford]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/03/sonys-locationporter-transmits-video-over-3g-at-a-price-you-ca/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/03/sonys-locationporter-transmits-video-over-3g-at-a-price-you-ca/</guid><description><![CDATA[Who are you to tell me what i can and cant afford?!?!<br><br>Im Rich B!tch!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Taylorman222]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 3rd 2009 10:36AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sony's LocationPorter transmits video over 3G at a price you can't afford]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/03/sonys-locationporter-transmits-video-over-3g-at-a-price-you-ca/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/03/sonys-locationporter-transmits-video-over-3g-at-a-price-you-ca/</guid><description><![CDATA[352x240 at 15fps?
