    We just finished up a meeting with the folks from Snapstick and came away surprisingly impressed with their foray into the increasingly cramped space of the connected living room. Snapstick's concept isn't that different from other mobile phone to TV systems we've seen, but it's implementation is definitely more unique than most other solutions currently available. Read on past the break for a quick rundown of the tech that makes the Snapstick system work, as well as a video of the system in action. %Gallery-113106%

    It's hardly a done deal when a relationship is described as in "talks." Nevertheless, D-Link and Snapstick are definitely working together to evaluate Snapstick's SplitMedia technology. Snapstick, as you'll recall, lets you snap any web content (with a focus on video services from Hulu, YouTube and the like) over WiFi from your smartphone to a D-Link box connected to a TV. It works from a laptop too, presumably without all the wrist-flicking. The private trial launches to users later this month but we hope to have a demonstration for you from CES in Las Vegas last this week. Until then, check the video demonstration after the break.
