Get the Sling Box!

So I just got a Sling Box for my Pro and it is the most amazing thing ever. It's definately not perfect, kind of slow but does pick up. I suggest it to everyone.

I have a slingbox and upgraded my FIOS to 20/20. Best thing you can do for slingbox is to upgrade your upload speed.

FiOS isnt available here in Michigan :S rumor is Verizon is holding off because they are not willing to compete with SBC and Comcast in this are yet.

Will the sling box app go to landscape bc I cant get mine to change to landscape mode. Beside that I love it I had it on my touch and just put it on my pro.

Yes it will go to landscape if you hit the icon for it. Or pulling out the keyboard will do it too.
