Hellno, I am not sure how the data would flow. Does anyone know if streaming media content for the Sona Mobile Player for BlackBerry is directed through RIM's back end? http://www.pocket-lint.co.uk/news/news.phtml/10398/11422/slingbox-locationfree-software-blackberry-phone.phtml Amit,

Wouldn't this be alittle too much data for systems designed for email and non-html web pages? I keep reminding myself unlike other wireless devices the BB devices in our pockets is just one part of the BB system.
