Eager to live in the fantastical future it has prophesied, NTT DoCoMo went to CEATEC and demoed an upcoming addition to its Pocket U service: MH2H (Mobile Home to Home), which gives you the ability use your cellphone to stream content from your computer at home to a friend’s TV. The phone connects to your friend’s WiFi network and sends his or her DLNA-compliant receiver the IP address of your also-DLNA-compliant server, then tells stated server to accept the connection and begin streaming any videos, songs, or pics you feel like sharing. When you leave, the connection ends and every one goes back to partying on their own isolated media islands like it’s 2006.
