I would hate to wait for this app only to have Apple flat out reject it because it competes with their iTunes movie/tv store or something stupid like that.

Andrew, Andrew, Andrew,

What a complete fool you are ! You are asking the very question that the chap has just answered. You moron.

Mac users really are quite thick.

Anyway, I didn't ask about a release date and no my question wasn't answered.

I have no doubt Sling can make a Sling Client app for the iPhone. They even demoed an early version of it back in June. It looked awesome by the way, much better than the WiMo version which isn't much of a surprise since the iPhone just kicks the snot out of all other 'smart' phones.

MegaZone said they are in the Apple Dev Program but I dont think that guarantees the app will be approved by Apple. For all we know the concept of streaming live TV to an iPhone might be a non starter for Apple or ATT.

Thanks for sharing this info with us MegaZone - hopefully Sling is able to release the iPhone app soon.]]>Sep 24th 2008 12:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/Sep 24th 2008 2:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/Sep 24th 2008 3:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/Sep 24th 2008 2:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/Sep 24th 2008 3:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/Sep 24th 2008 5:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/Sep 24th 2008 3:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/

is it working with any DishNetwork or DirectTV?
also what about stream size? because all major High-Speed providers are going to put speed limit when you go over 5-50 Gb's specially for HD and what is the point making stream HD when not even all laptops support that resolution not talking even iPones and other PDA and phones with the screen smaller than 4". You should maybe consider to make web-base user accounts so when i for example in China or Germany i can access to my receiver from any PC or any other internet devices that support for example Flash?]]>Sep 24th 2008 7:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/24/slingplayer-2-0-escapes-beta-slingbox-pro-hd-any-day-now/

AT&t doesnt want all us sling users clogging their network.
(I believe this was an official AT&T comment)

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Love my slingbox.
I use it with my MacBookPro all over the world.
