Slingbox Pro-HD 1080i Video Streamer Now Shipping
It took a little time, but today is the day that your patience pays off—the Slingbox Pro-HD has gone live on the product website and it is shipping to customers today. An investment of $300 will get you started on slingin' some sweet 1080i video around your home network or over the internet to your laptop. The Pro-HD works with the Slingcatcher receiver which I'm guessing shouldn't be too far behind. [Slingbox] -

The Slingers are giddy today: After a long wait, many good things are happening with their favorite placeshifter.

Windows-based Slingers can be psyched about the latest beta of the Sling Player 2.0 (available for Macs by like 2047 or something). While we're at it, SlingPlayer Mobile for Symbian UIQ just arrived. So there you go, Sling away, just remember to lock the door so your mom doesn't catch you. [Slingbox Pro-HD and SlingCatcher via MegaZone at Sling Community] -

SlingPlayer Mobile Gets Updated For Windows Mobile and Symbian
Sling's just rolled out new versions of their SlingPlayer Mobile for Windows Mobile (both versions) and Symbian S60. It's a free upgrade for current users and adds support for new handsets (Nokia N95, Samsung i760, Treo 500v, etc.) and improves streaming quality (Sprint Mogul) on others. We went to a car wash this weekend and had 10 minutes of downtime. TEN MINUTES! This should ensure that never happens again. [Sling]
