If you watch TV and travel a lot it is. I am looking into stock in the two companies that invested in this. I think this will be a huge hit. Especially for sports fans.
Slingbox is friggin awesome. My friend has one and it is just amazing. We can sit from anywhere and watch what is going on. neat stuff...woth it in my book.
A couple of my friends have it so they can watch the Laker games (They're in the East Coast for school)...Although quality can sometimes be a little shady (from what they've told me), no complaints from them...good product...price tag might be a little steep...but it's getting recognized pretty fast...
It is sad that we are accepting low quality music and video over convenience. The companies are taking advantage of this and dumbing down the society. Not as an ego thing; I would never get SlingBox. All my media is downloaded podcasts anyway.
