We've just started testing Sony's LocationFree - rival to the impressive Sling Media Slingbox that lets you watch your home TV over the Internet.

UPDATE: Our full review of LocationFree is now live.

Trying to get it to talk to our router wirelessly (something the Slingbox won't do without a wireless bridge) is proving to be a challenge, but it's working fine over a standard wired connection.

Annoyingly, we forgot LocationFree will only allow the software to be installed on one PC at a time - extra copies cost £19.99 each. So, with the software CD sitting in a laptop 20 miles from the office, we're unable to tell you how it performs over the Internet until tomorrow.

With the Slingbox this wouldn't have been an issue as you can download the software online for free as many times are you like.

Surely Sony must follow suit or change the product's name to from LocationFree to Location£19.99.

It's also interesting to note that Sony must either be in a very generous mood or, more likely, scared stiff of the competition posed by the cheaper Slingbox. We were originally told LocationFree would cost a staggering £350, but over on the official SonyStyle website you can now pick it up for £229 inc VAT - quite a saving.

It's still more expensive than the Slingbox (£179.99), but it does let you watch video streams on your Sony PSP.

We'll be posting our full review of LocationFree later this week. In the meantime, check out our Slingbox review and have a listen to our podcast.
