As if we weren't already overwhelmed with Sling news lately -- what with the
EchoStar acquisition,
Slingbox SOLO launch, and SlingPlayer Mobile for Symbian
moving out of beta -- we've just gotten word that
the company is working with RIM to develop a BlackBerry-compatible version of its client. Pocket-lint reportedly got the scoop straight from the horse's mouth, with European VP Stuart Collingswood confirming the joint effort but giving no indication of a release timetable. Besides S60, Sling also currently supports
Palm and both the
Smartphone and Pocket PC versions of Windows Mobile in the handset space.
