Try googling Smart glass , Microsoft and Xbox are also getting in on the act , VM are to release the excellent TIVO iPad app and Sky have teamed up with Zeebox , even the BBC were looking into it.



I agree the red button has certain uses , match choice being one however my problem is when going from a HD broadcast and pressing red you have a delay for everything to load , then you switch to say driver cam and are presented with a poor quality SD feed , that's why I believe the companion devices are better as it allows you to keep the main HD broadcast on your TV without waiting then switching to SD.

On Sky driver cam via the red button is in HD.
