Sling Media Slingbox SOLO (SB260-100)

This little invention is probably the best thing since sliced bread. It does what it says it does. Moreover, the customer support is fabulous. I had a problem setting up my IP addresses and in five minutes support was able to diagnose, find, and solve the problem. You gotta get one of these!! I can now watch TV at work while handling my business.

I was able to watch my beloved Baltimore Ravens on my laptop while sitting in a parking lot Cody, Wyoming. 4-stars only because the picture quality could have been better, but, it worked as advertised.

This is a neat gadget, to be able to watch your TV anywhere. And it works great. The only complaint I have is it takes up a lot of bandwidth on your network even when you are not watching TV with it.

I purchased the Sling Solo so I could watch Minneapolis TV stations from my home in Indianapolis, IN. My brother installed it in his house there and got the Solo set up in less than 30 minutes. I LOVE it, but the picture isn't quite as good as I had hoped. Football/Basketball/Baseball are watchable and the Audio is perfect. Just don't expect the picture to be DVD quality. It's pretty grainy at 400kb upload speed. Apparently it is much improved at 800kb or higher.

One of the best inventions since Tivo. It takes a little time to download the software and getting it to work with a internet connection. But once you get it set up it is great. I was at my brother in-law's house on a Sunday and he does not have Directv with NFL Sunday ticket. Well I do and I used my Slingbox on my laptop and got to watch my New York Giants beat the 49ers while he had to watch his lowly Detroit Lions lose another game. It's like having your TV and Receiver with you no matter where you go providing you have a Broadband connection or High Speed Wireless. This thing works as advertised.
