Have it for a month, so far it's good

Bought this for a trip to Argentina. Worked perfect on the desktop but failed on the Iphone with wifi. In USA works crystal on the Iphone, maybe the service was slower in Argentina. Read alot of bad reviews about crapping out after a year. Only have this unit for a month now and completely satisfied with tech support and the quality. Only time will tell. Will get back to all May of 2012. PS- Not compatiable with HDMI only downfall so far.

TV Anywhere with smart phone, computer

If you have cable or TV at home and want to watch it anywhere you have a data connection, this is the best. I never miss a home game when I'm on the road, out to dinner, or over visiting people I really don't care to see. Hotel TV Channels are not good, and you get full access to your Set Top Box as if you were right there at home. Just make sure no one else is at home watching that TV, because they will see what your watching or they can change the channel on you. That is why I rent another dedicated DVR Set top box just for the Sling. When I connect to it, I know I have solo access to what ever I want to watch. If I want to hang out in the living room with the family but don't want to watch whey they are watching, I pull up the Sling on my Lap Top and watch what I want to watch with Head Phones. The Best Product Ever! HD Quality is Very Impressive Too with this model. Only Draw back, only 1 device can view and control the Sling at a Time.

Love it - Best Ever!

This device is off the hook! Considering what is does... Stream my home satellite TV over the Internet so I can watch anywhere. What more can I ask for. It is by no means perfect but it really does work. I watch NBA using 3G on IPhone when I am out. Or my friend doesn't have cable TV but he has Hi-speed Internet so we can still watch the game at his house. Or if I want to watch an MLB day game at work. And of course if I am working on the computer at home I can watch the game in the corner of my Mac. I love it. All my friends and relatives want one now too.
