Another feature new to Belkin routers is MediaPlay, an app powered by Twonky that turns your iOS or Android device into a wireless network mediaplayer and enables you to stream content directly from a smartphone or tablet to a Smart TV.
In an application with the U.S. Patent Office published in December 2007, Apple described a wireless system that would allow customers to place an order at a store using a wireless device such as a mediaplayer, a wireless personal digital assistant or a cellphone.
D-Link is touting the new DSM-5210R as the first wireless high-def streaming mediaplayer with 100GB of storage and 5-in-1 card reader, but is it semantics?
