I have an app for my iphone called AirVideo. I downloaded a client on my home pc, download the app on my phone, get the settings right, and BAAM! I have streaming access from all of my hard drive videos to my phone regardless of the network. [even 3g]
I would like to be able to do the same thing with my laptop. Does anyone know of a program that would allow me do this?
I'm running Win 7.

You would have to set up your NAS as a server, so she could have access to your files....
