Since 2005, Sling Media has been offering the Slingbox as a way to
watch your television content on the go, through an Internet enabled
device such as a laptop or mobile phone. The process is simple, you
connect the Slingbox to some sort of video device such as aDVR or cable
connection, and to a broadband router. Then launch the SlingPlayer
software on your computer, and it walks you through the steps to start
“slinging”, or streaming your TV content to you, where ever you are.
The SlingPlayer software has been expanded over the past few years to
include phones running Windows Mobile, Palm, Symbian and Blackberry.
However, the media king, the iPhone, has been conspicuously missing.
There arguably hasn’t been a more anticipated and hyped application for
the iPhone than the SlingPlayer, so keep reading to see how it stacks
up in real world testing. The application is available for purchase
through theiTunes application store for $29.99. More information about
