SlingPlayer Mobile Beta

Slingdock I love my Slingbox. At first it was neat, but not really...well...gadget love. The thing that tipped me over was the SlingPlayer Mobile release. Great article in the Washington Post today on the release. Congrats to Blake and team on getting this out in Q1 just like they announced back at CES.

I was lucky enough to get to beta test the Mobile Player for the past month, and I'm addicted. I had an hour train ride from Newark Airport to Princeton this week and I watched Howie Mandel's Deal or No Deal the entire ride on my Treo 700W. Fantastic.

I like the picture quality and size of my laptop version of the SlingPlayer, but I much more often have my EVDO-powered Treo 700 with me than have my laptop and a broadband connection. When I get bored, watching my own TiVo on my Treo - via my Slingbox - is much better than reading an old Time magazine or just staring at the wall. In this circumstance, the small picture and sometimes sketchy EVDO coverage is easier to endure.

By the way, if you get and register a Slingbox by April 26 - the mobile player is free. Nice.

Sling on!

Gadget of the Month

Past Gadgets

  • SlingMedia (Slingbox)
    Fascinating new toy that let's you view your TV content (including TiVo shows, or even a DVD player/changer) from any PC with a broadband connection. Picture quality is still an issue, but as bandwidth increases this will be a very powerful tool. My SlingMedia Review here.
  • Dell Latitude X1
    I use my laptop almost 100% of the time as my primary PC, so it's important that it's comfortable for me. While the machine is plenty powerful for me, my only nit is the small trackpad and mouse buttons. My Dell Latitude X1 review here.
  • Treo 700w (Verizon)
    Windows Mobile Edition on the form factor of the great Treo 650. Some nits, but all-in-all a very nice device. My issues are with the software and protocols. (see posts on Wireless Productivity)
