The '00s have become the decade of convergence and convenience. No longer will we tolerate being off-line, out of telephone contact, or more than an inch away from entertainment. One of this year's most striking C&C devices is the Slingbox.
Sling Media's device will take your cable television, satellite or DVR output and convert it into a signal that can be received by your computer's wireless card, allowing you to watch your shows on your PC wherever you may be, in the range of your wireless network. At last, I can lounge by my (imaginary) pool drinking my (imaginary) Cuba Libre and still watch the Browns trounce Pittsburgh (imaginary).
Even better (i.e., worse, if you are a broadcaster), the signal could be routed via the internet to my PC anywhere in the world. The company also offers a product that will route the signal to your cell phone.
