Perfect MPEG-4 stream to Sydney, Australia. Haven't had a single dropout.

Coming through AirPort over Optus cable.

Walking around the house with PowerBook, trying to keep warm (middle of the night, winter here).

MPEG 4 streaming is great I had to select the right settings in QT6 System Prefs.... then everything is cool. The quality is pretty great too...

If your stream drops out, don't be afraid to stop over at the <a href="http://www.gacmug.org" target="_blank">GACMUG web page</a> for MacWorld Expo updates.

my stream died at 10:50 too...upon reconnecting, I think I'm at the beginning of the show in spite of it saying "live"...and I can't move forward in the stream.... bummer...wonder what happened? My connection wasn't interupted to the net... just to the stream.
