My Slingbox Arrived:
Yesterday, after waiting since the beginning of the summer, my Slingbox finally arrived. The packaging and design of the Slingbox is almost as cool as the underlying concept. :)
It took just five minutes to install the Slingbox and an equal amount of time to install their software. The harder part of the install process was the five additional minutes it took me to enable port forwarding on the antique Linksys router in my home.
Now that “remote viewing” has been tested and enabled, I plan to give this system a test when I run the SlingPlayer from my desk at my office later this morning.

Too bad, they both don't support PAL yet. I would love to put one in my parents' house in Bombay (India) and watch some Indian channels for free from here in New Jersey!

This is similar to what SONY had at CES.
