Live Anywhere: manage Xbox360 downloads on your mobile!

Over on the Teamxbox.com forum, someone has kindly posted photos from a Microsoft's Live Anywhere presentation given at Brew 2006. The images show that Microsoft's cross-platform online initiative will allow users to access Xbox Live Marketplace from their mobiles and then remotely instruct their Xbox 360 to download demos!

This is a fanastic idea. Imagine it: selecting desirable demos while you're on the bus only to find them ready and waiting on your machine by the time you get home. Of course, this will entail keeping your console switched on while you're out which won't please the eco crowd...

The slides also suggest that Xbox 360 owners will be able to manage buddy lists and communicate with clan members as well as download mobile games.
