Summary: This thing rocks! 2008-08-19
Comment: A friend bought a slingbox more than a year ago and I thought it was great, but without a Mac client it was useless to me. When this year's Tour de France came on I REALLY wanted to watch at the office and so with a Mac client now available I bought the SOLO. What an amazing device. On the home network the picture is astounding, over the internet, it is amazingly clean and smooth.
My only down check is that I am still waiting on an iPhone client.
A great gadget, I recommend.

Summary: Slingbox Works as Advertised 2008-08-17
Comment: I am impressed with the Slingbox Solo. It does everything the company said it did. Installed very easily. My first trip out of town after it was installed was a place with a very slow internet connection. In spite of this, the Slingbox worked very well, Recommend highly.

Comment: Unbelievable....I can watch and control my Dish network anywhere I have internet access (which is a lot of places with a Verizon USB720). It may not be perfect but I think it's great.

Summary: Pretty good 2008-08-01
Comment: It's not bad.
I can watch on another PC on the same network (hooked up to a TV) and it looks lightly better than SD TV, not quite HD.
On my laptop when I'm on the road, it's choppy. That may be the connection, because I use an old Xbox wireless adapter to connect it to my network.
When you click the remote, it's like you fast forward time for a second. You have to get used to it. But if you leave it alone and just watch the TV, it's pretty good.
My friend even used it to watch a UFC PPV at his house using a giant projector on his wall, and said it was very good.
