But how many have decent content?  The high speed net access is often free but the better TV content is pay per view.  Why not watch your Tivo content on the road without having to remember to copy it before you leave?  Perhaps your local sports teams in real time.  Your Sunday Ticket games.  This is a great option for business or casual travelers.<br><br>As high speed wireless options expand, this will become even more useful.  Watching what you want on your wireless PDA or smartphone while waiting in a waiting room.  There are lots of possibilites.<br><br>And yes, you do need to watch TV at work.  Who the heck needs to be productive?  ;-)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeff]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slingbox reviews roundup]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/30/slingbox-reviews-roundup/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/30/slingbox-reviews-roundup/</guid><description><![CDATA[I still can't get a sense of how big this thing is.

As for dimensions, it is shockingly small.  The box is no wider than my DirecTV receiver.  Video quality is perfect for the intended use and the setup was a snap, even with multiple routers.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jason]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slingbox reviews roundup]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/30/slingbox-reviews-roundup/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/30/slingbox-reviews-roundup/</guid><description><![CDATA[because Windows needs something to prevent people from switching to OSX :p]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jazzay]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slingbox reviews roundup]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/30/slingbox-reviews-roundup/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/30/slingbox-reviews-roundup/</guid><description><![CDATA[I would like to see a comparison review between the slingbox device vs the Orb media software. <br>I setup my desktop PC with a dual tuner TV PCI card, and with Orb Media's software at my apartment. Let me tell you straight out that the Orb software is TOP NOTCH. Since I started using orb all my live TV channels stream almost flawlessly no matter where I am at. I can stream all my media over my home networks wireless G connection to my laptop or to any pc connected to the net. I have even tested streaming live TV over the web to a friends PC that uses a 56k modem, of course the video was low resolution yet it still worked thanks to ORB. In my experience ORB is really tough to beat!!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Toby Udstuen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slingbox reviews roundup]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/30/slingbox-reviews-roundup/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/30/slingbox-reviews-roundup/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ya, i stopped at best buy too, and nothing.

When I installed it I was disappointed that it didn't have the remote control codes for most of my equipment. For the few devices that were in the list, the codes didn't work. The technical support was not able to give me any hints.<br>Another problem is that you can only watch the stream on one computer at the time and you need to install their software. I am asking myself why there is no browser plug-in.<br>A major flaw in the design is that the box has 3 inputs, but the software doesn't let you switch them on the fly. How stupid is that!!!<br>In my opinion the software sucks! They need to have a broser plug-in that allows you to have a interface to control multiple devices and switch the inputs.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Thomas Mueller]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slingbox reviews roundup]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/30/slingbox-reviews-roundup/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/30/slingbox-reviews-roundup/</guid><description><![CDATA[Dear Sir,<br>I would like you to email me all the handball teams in France, in order to contact them for training tour of our team from Nigeria.<br>Waiting for your urgent reply.<br>Thanks]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Clement Uba]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:17AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
