These are great and cool and dope and fly and all, but what I want is a hardware sling client that I can plug into a regular TV. Then I can plug the output from my Tivo in the living room into the network and watch it in the bedroom. Right now, I'm doing it by encoding the A/V outs back to a coax signal. While it works pretty well, there is noise in the system (audio hiss, the most annoying). Seems like a sling hardware encode/decode system could eliminate some of these problems, plus add support for place-shifng an HD signal. Watching TV on my phone would be gravy.

I've had my MBP since late Feb. It was an early build. So far the hard drive has died (about 2 weeks in) and the battery quite working (about 2 weeks ago). Both were replaced under AppleCare fairly quickly.

I sort of expected a couple problems since it was such an early model. I'm pretty happy with how quickly Apple fixed it. The MBP is absolutely wonderful if a little warm.
