Sling Monitor in-home placeshifter hands-up

We just heard about the Sling Monitor, a quick way to move content from your Dish ViP 922 around your home, but we had to see it for ourselves. The display model at the Echostar booth was mounted way above eye-level, so we had to take some blind shots above the head. Look with your eyes, not your hands!

blind shot? camera doesnt have live view LCD that can turn?

The idea of a wireless T.V is stupid.

I do however think the idea of having 1 dvr box with sling opposed to two diffrent units is awesome.
TIVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO this could have been you..Know I highly doubt tivo getting this type of functionality.

Some companies can be so great but are crippled by "PROFESSIONALS".
