Anyone tried setting up a VPN server ( as a sort of proxy ) in Europe to stream the coverage to the states ( for personal use of course )?

I might try this later, if it works I'll report back.

EDIT: I got it working, the location I am right now has less than 1Mbps down so I cant tell if the lag is due to the VPN and the distance or the BW limitation. In a little bit I'll be home and I can test with a better connection (8Mbps)

Just got home and I have to say that it works great if you have a decent connection! I can even watch the 'HD' version.

There was already a site for the summer games in China, so I expect there will be a site for the summer games in London as well!
