I have been asked a few times and come across questions about Slingbox support on BlackBerrys on Pinstack. I just came across a blog that mentions asking about BlackBerry support at CES. Slingbox advised they are aware of consumer interest, but the blogger could not determine if there was something being tested or not.
What is known is Slingbox is beta testing Palm and Symbian versions. What is up with the lack of BlackBerry love?
Slingbox gives you control of your TV using the internet, either a PC or a mobile phone with its software on it. As it has never supported BlackBerrys I have never tried it.
1. SlingBox is kick ass.
But you're going to need a 3G connection for it to work decent.
So I wouldn't expect slingbox to produce anything for BB until the TMO and Cingular 3G BB's are released...But then, it will be awesome...Slinging Tivo from home to the car while driving 80mph weaving in and out of traffic watching Jack Bauer save the world again from terrorists!?!?
I can't wait!!!
