Here at osoo.co.uk we have had an exciting morning.

We took delivery of our first batch of the Buffalo Linkstation Live. The first thing we noticed was how compact and small it was. We expected it to be around the size of an X-Box 360 but we pleasantly surprised found it to be more the size of a decent router. So off we went setting one up at home (purely for research purposes of course :) A couple of clicks and set up screens later we were ready to go, after maybe 10-12 minutes maximum.

The first thing we checked was the presence of FTP and Print servers which I’m happy to say are both very simple to access and use. The Linkstation Live also has a built in Bit Torrent client application so I set about a few downloads and just sat back. It was near silent as it flashed away in the corner and I almost forgot it was there. The Linkstation Live is fully DLNA certified so is fully compatible with all DLNA. This means it will sync to you Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 and you can stream video and music wirelessly all around the home. After a quick search online I found a few helpful bits of advice including an DNLA app for my I-Phone which meant I could even access the Linkstation Live via DLNA through my router and play content on my iPhone too!

AWESOME is the only way I can describe this. After a quick upgrade to the full DNLA app at a cost of £4.99 I was able to download content from the Linkstation Live direct to my phone. I don’t know if I’m the only one who will…….. but I absolutely loved this feature!!!

Another 30 minutes of fiddling and setting and I was streaming music and film content through my I-Phone, X-Box 360 and Playstation 3 at the same time and all different files to the different DNLA clients on my network, Wow!!!!!! Again I was so excited by this and after a quick lesson with my 2 children (12 & 18) they were syncing and streaming effortlessly.

The Linkstation Live has a built in FTP server so I found a good FTP client site and set about working out how to access my media from outside via the web. Another 30 minutes of tweaking and FTP was set up with minimal hassle. I went out to a friends for the evening and gave it a whirl and no problems at all.

All in all, the Linkstation Live is a truly awesome piece of technology which is about to change my life forever….if you have a family or just love to access your files and media wherever you maybe, then you will agree that this is one amazing product.

I should know, I just bought one……….

Welcome to our blog!

A new and exciting company

Are you in the market for buying up some electronic supplies? If so then you must check out the newest company on the market at http://www.osoo.co.uk.

This company just launched, and they are ready to meet all of your electronics needs. Since they just opened, they do not have that large department store mentality that is so common among the big players. Rather, they have nice and friendly customer service and a customer friendly website.

The website itself has been designed for the ease of use by customers, and is constantly being updated. You are able to open up a shopping cart account in just minutes. All that you need to provide is billing information in order to begin shopping right away. It is also nice to see that the prices of all of the items that are sold on this site are clearly displayed and fairly priced.

Perhaps the best thing overall about this company is that they are selling UK sources electronics only. This means that you will be helping the local economy when you purchase with osoo.co.uk . They do not want to have their products come in from other sources because they are aware of the importance of providing jobs to the local economy and to supporting the local economy in general. While other companies may bring in their products from all over the world, http://www.osoo.co.uk sticks to the basics.

By keeping their products local, this company is able to better understand its products and therefore they are better able to provide this information to its customers. After all, it is often the case that you may have some trouble with an electronic device. If this is the case, then the company is much more likely to be able to help you work out the issues, because they understand the product. Compare that to companies that bring in products from all over the world that they may not understand.

It truly seems that this company is just far better positioned to help out customers, provide local jobs and help the economy, and provide the best products in all of the United Kingdom then all of its competitors. Why would you turn anywhere else when you can pick up your great deals on electronics here? Try it today.
