I am going to buy one at Best Buy later today. What are your experiences with slingboxes? I was suprised at how cheap these things are. Hell I would have paid $500 for this technology.
You cant get anything cheaper than a slingbox
I have one, but 3 timesnow it has stopped working saying it cant find my slingbox, pisses me the fuck off. I'd like to use it on a phone, what kind of phone do I need? Hell i cant even get it setup right to use on my laptop remotely
Ok I have had my slingbox for about a year now. I love it. Yes It goes out on cell phones alot. But since I got my tmobile wing it has worked pretty good. I have never had problems with it on my laptop. Love the fact i can change the channel to. Also setup is easy as hell and you can call them and they will walk you through any trouble shooting.
If i recall correctly slingbox charges you for the cell phone application as well....
I have used it on my T-mobile Dash and am currently using it on my T-Mobile Shadow (what else would I be using!)
I think my issues stem from the bandwidth of t-mobile data service
If using for cell phone, be sure to check the slingbox website to ensure your phone is compatible
What data plan do you have?
By the way, this is a great deal. You get a Nokia 95 and a Slingbox for $550.
