Re: Get the Sling Box!

Here's my setup.

1) Sling Pro w/ HD connection for Touch Pro.

Pros: Colors, sharpness are much better on sling on Touch pro.

Takes less time for the app to start the tv, and less delay.

Cons: Screen size



2)Wintv 1950 connected via composite for Iphone 3G.

Pros: Screen size

Sound is much better on Iphone - Iphones speaker really rocks compared to other phones.

Cons: Colors and sharpness are sub par to the Sling on Touch Pro - This may be because of Tuner's connection, which is only composite/S-vid

Orb support on tv tuners are limited. I researched and made sure Wintv 1950 does work, and got it.

Wintv 1950's IR blaster isn't supported by Orb, so I can't change channels as of now, but I am getting a remote that's supposed to work w/ Orb, so we'll see.

Delay vs real tv is about a minute, and it takes much longer for orb to start live tv than the slingbox.

Anyways, I love both!!
