Oooh if thats how it works them I'm very interested.

Just assumed this was Nvidia's attempt at cracking the handheld market. Assumed it would be phone type hardware build into a game pad with a screen...

Now if it can stream any game from my PC, Im in.

It is a genius idea - Android when you're away from house, PC when your at home. Add in the recent Steam "Big Picture" function, and it looks even more appealing.

However, would bring some interesting UI issues for most games on a screen that size. Most PC games aren't designed around resolutions on a screen that small.
