I also caught wind of MovieBeam's new box and service this AM. Obviously those investment announcements made last week had been in the works for awhile... since it looks like MovieBeam will let me order a Linksys box NOW for my location (Washington, DC area). I wonder if they're using local television stations to broadcast the signals, like they are with that one cable OTA service in the west? Movie rentals are for 24 hours and include DVR controls. I don't see this taking off with this business model, but I'm tempted to buy it... in the name of science. :)
