Streaming media devices such as Slingbox have been around for awhile, but today Monsoon Multimedia announced they would be taking pre-orders for their new Vulkano media device. According to what I've read in their press release, the Vulkano takes streaming media experience to a whole new level.

"When connected to a set-top box and a TV, Vulkano enables a complete video experience across Android, Blackberry, iPhones, iPads, Macs, PCs and the living room TV. Vulkano allows users for the first time to experience their TV channels, videos and photos on whichever screen they want, when they want it." 

Vulkano users will have the ability to download an application to their BlackBerry and then watch and control any home TV channel through a wired, Wi-Fi, or 3G connection from anywhere in the world. Users will also be able to access a program guide and schedule recordings, and watch those programs at anytime on their BlackBerry. 

I am extremely excited for the Vulkano, and you can count on us to post a full review just as soon as they are released. For now, you can go to the Vulkano website for info on pricing and to pre-order. Check after the jump for the full press release.
