For VMware Fusion users, Windows 7 is available as a Virtual Appliance download. I downloaded the package and had it running within 20 minutes with no OS install whatsoever, just some minor tweaks to the default settings for memory and disk allocation.

SlingPlayer Mobile for iPhone, SlingPlayer for Mac HD make debuts

I agree with you, Squid. I think I would be willing to pay $10... maybe $15... $20 is really excessive but I'd probably bite the bullet and pull the trigger. At $30, I just feel squeezed.

Charging for this app seems a bit ridiculous to me seeing as the PC / Mac versions are free. I am not yet a Sling owner since I have been waiting for an iPhone app to be released. If I am going to purchase a Slingbox Pro-HD for $300, I shouldn't have to buy an app to use it too. I realize the WinMo app is also sold separately but I think that is BS too. I guess we'll see what it's priced at but I'm guessing it will probably be around the same as the WinMo app @ $30, which will most likely be a deal breaker for me. It's not so much the $330 price tag as it is the gouging / raping aspect of it all.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
