Those nifty new Sony LocationFree base stations we told you about the other day? Yeah, you're going to have to wait a while to get your hands on one.Sony has a pretty good track record when it comes to product delays. The Playstation 3 has been delayed several times, and is now expected to launch about a year after its main competitor, the XBOX 360 hit the shelves. Sony has had place-shifting devices on the market for the last couple of years now, but has lost a lot of ground to companies like Sling Media, which has released lower-cost consumer friendly products for transmitting your television programs over the web.
The LF-B10 and LF-B20 devices are supposed to be Sony's answer to the Slingbox, with prices near the $200 and $250 mark and the ability to connect to your home network via WiFi, something missing from the latest generation of Slingbox devices.
The Japanese launch of the new LocationFree boxes has been pushed back a month to Nov 27th. No release date has been set for the U.S.
