Older Slingboxes won't work with SlingPlayer for iPhone {Engadget HD}
Apr 2nd 2009 11:51AM This is great news! I have a PRO-HD and I plan on getting a new iPhone this summer (hopefully the new model).
I'm sorry for those who don't have the newer Slingboxes, but as we all know we have to keep forking out money to keep up with technology. Maybe I should have demaned apple make my 2nd gen B&W iPod do color video. That would have saved me some money too! :-)

Poll: Would you switch carriers if fiber came to town? {Engadget HD}
Dec 13th 2008 2:42PM I have DirecTV and love it. I also like my phone sevice from AT&T. I would like faster internet however (particularly upload speed to improve my Slingbox PRO-HD).
I would switch if FiOS was available in my area and the price was comparable to what I have now. It will probably be Uverse since AT&T is so big in the metro Atlanta area.

SlingPlayer 2.0 enters public beta -- without Clip+Sling {Engadget}
Sep 24th 2008 2:05PM MegaZone -
Thanks for your Sling updates.
I am a student studying abroad and I bought a DirecTV HD DVR at my home in the US. Now all I need is the Slingbox PRO-HD to sling to my HD-resolution laptop.
My download speed is great, but my upload back in the US is only ~500 not the 1.5MB/s required.. What kind of resolution can I expect? Am I correct in assuming it won't be full HD, but at least better than 480?
Thanks!
DirecTV's GameSearch feature seeks blacked-out games {Engadget HD}
May 22nd 2008 10:55PM The GameSearch sounds awesome.
I wish they had a similar way of seeking games in HD over SD. I cannot figure out a way to have my DVR record a game in HD vs (the same game in) SD. I can't eliminate the channel from my lineup because some of the only SD games are broadcast on it. (Example: Channel 630 vs 630-1).
