This year's E3 revealed Live Anywhere as part of a plan to boost the number of Xbox Live subscribers. Extending the Xbox Live service to multiple platforms, Live Anywhere will allow players to move easily from one gaming environment to another while using a single player identity across several communities.

Microsoft has announced that Live Anywhere will be extending to other mobile platforms like Java and Symbian. Qualcomm's Brew 2006 Conference reveals that Live Anywhere will also be working with a non-Microsoft mobile platform. Microsoft's upcoming service will be having its own Brew mobile software development and delivery platform.

The images splattered in this article show images from the Brew 2006 Conference where the announcement of having Live Anywhere service on Brew phones was announced. With this new extension in the Live service, Brew phone users can now queue downloads from their phones so their 360s can download them while they are away. Checking out clan messages, purchasing games, and connecting with Xbox Live friends will now also be possible on a Brew phone.

Although the entire vision for Live anywhere will take a couple of years to fully realize, Microsoft Casual Games studio manager Chris Early says that users will see some elements of it on phones by next year's E3. Porting Live Anywhere to Brew phones will allow Microsoft to reach a broader mobile market as Brew is offered by 69 operators in 31 countries.

Take a look at the pic with the cell phone and pda and tab pc it looks like a hand held is this a sign and tip that they do in fact have a hand held they are working on becasue they have been saying no for a long time and mum has been the world and for a pic like that to hit the net???

I really like the idea of being able to queue up downloads on your 360 from your cell phone.....that means you can browese the marketplace when you are board on the bus and have stuff download by the time you are home.....very sweet idea.

you would have to leave your 360 on all day for that to work, not sure thats a good idea.

I leave my 360 on all day as it is....sitting at the dash it's not warm at and uses minimal energy....I leave my pc on 24-7 as well....it's actually better for electronics to keep a charge running thru the system opposed to constantly turning it on and off...
