Remote play has been around for years on the PSP and PS3. You could turn on your and access certain games, music, videos from your PSP from any WiFi connection anywhere. It's an awesome feature, the only problem is it is unreliable. Sometimes it doesn't work at all and when it does its spotty at best. Games would have lag and the PS3 is tied up while remote play is in progress. Having the wrong type of router could even cause issues with it. Even when directly connected to the PS3 through its WiFi adapter it wasn't perfect. Remote play was one of the biggest reasons I got my PSP but it just never panned out.
So far everything I have read hints to remote play being limited to your home WiFi for Vita PS4 or at least that's how they are pushing it since that is were you'll likely get the best performance. But if with GaiKai they do a better job with the game streaming and continue with cross-buy/play/save, and they improve the remote play functions for this gen I might actually try again with a Vita.
