Has anyone tried using the intoxicating combination of the bluetooth, IR and USB enabled brand new Sony camera with the P800?

Sony DCR-IP220E, Network Handycam (hottest digital video/still camera available!)

At least with the "older" IP55, you can't Webcast with the camera alone. This needs a streaming server, which runs on the PC. The camera connects to the PC via the USB link, and the PC streams the video.

The camera itself has an e-mail client and a Web browser built-in, but no Web server and no streaming server. For the e-mail to work, one can connect via Bluetooth to a modem. I tried the T39m successfully, but not yet the P800.
