About the session

This presentation looks at how IP will successfully get from the broadband modem to the TV screen, focusing on Ethernet, wireless, powerline technologies. The speaker answers questions about centralised storage (the "home hub") vs. distributed (a.k.a. "thin") vs. "thick" clients, as well as analysing how devices talk to each other - and how much skill the consumer will require. Finally, he addresses the complex security and rights issues surrounding these areas.
