The Beta version of Skyfire is a real tease. I wish that they would fix the bugs, overheating and scrolling problems. Then it would be my primary browser. Watching TV shows on the fly is great. As of right now I just use it sporadically to go to flash enabled sites. If it was fined tuned and fixed I would give up Opera.

This "new" SPB product is just an unbundled version of their SPB Online Product. They took the TV portion out. The channels are really anemic. I'd rather watch delayed TV on Hulu than most of the programs they have now. Hopefully the program suggestions feature will ge SPB to get on the ball.

About the limited stations....the thing you have to remember about SPB is that is is based in Russia, and their apps are world-wide, so the limited selection (especially non-russian stations) really shouldn't be a suprise so early on. There are about three times what there were in the early beta, so it is getting better. Plus....with the request page up, if people take the time to request them, I am sure a lot more will get added in.

I have high hopes, I think it will grow, I think this is the slickest, more professional looking TV app I have seen for the money!!

Granted that I doubt if I would have paid for a slingbox just to stream to my phone. What sold me was being able to sit in any hotel room with my notebook and watch whatever I would be watching at home including my local channels and my recorded programs on my DVR. The mobile interface just completed the package allowing me to watch and program my DVR from anywhere any time.
