The Slingbox is a famous television-streaming device which enables users to remotely view their home's cable, satellite, or personal video recorder from any network-enabled computer (or television). You can learn about SlingMedia and the SlingBox here

We've long been awaiting the ability to access SlingBox via the iPhone – and tomorrow it will finally be possible. The SlingPlayer Mobile application will be hitting the app store anytime between now and tomorrow morning.

Here's what you need to know:

  • $30
  • WiFi only (which kinda means that you might as well use your laptop)  
  • Works with older SlingBoxes too  
  • Video streams well, screens load slow  

The application is excellent, and really pushes your iPhone's limits. Unfortunately, due to AT&T, SlingPlayer Mobile will not be usable over 3G.
