Stuck on the bus and in traffic and your favorite TV show is about to come on? You can now watch TV from your own personal mobile device because SlingPlayer Media has just released the Beta version of SlingPlayer Mobile! YES! That’s right folks… if you’re a current Slingbox customer, you can take advantage of the beta version now and get a preview of all the great features!
FEATURES • Intuitive SlingPlayer interface Just like the PC version, the SlingPlayer Mobile is very easy to use, with most features accessible through familiar icons and a touch-screen interface. • Automatic Slingbox Directory synchronization The SlingPlayer Mobile is able to use Microsoft ActiveSync to keep your PC Slingbox Directory synchronized with your Windows Mobile device. • SlingStream video optimization In a mobile environment, your network connections may fluctuate rapidly, so SlingStream technology determines the best video quality to stream your Slingbox, and is constantly monitoring and optimizing the network for you. • Slingbox Finder support Your Mobile device automatically communicates with your Slingbox via the Slingbox Finder, a free service. • Full-screen video For all Pocket PC's with rectangular displays (320x240 or 640x480 resolution), the SlingPlayer Mobile includes a full-screen "landscape" mode, with rotation • Graphical SlingRemote The SlingPlayer Mobile software includes all the remote control capabilities as used in the SlingPlayer PC, giving you full control over your Slingbox and whatever device you connected to it, including your cable box, satellite receiver, DVR, or DVD player! • "Favorites" shortcuts One of the most popular features of the SlingPlayer is the ability to set your own Favorites shorcuts. Well, it's in the SlingPlayer Mobile as well, with even more features (yes, we've packed MORE features into the smaller product). Not only can you set shortcuts to your favorite channels, you can also set favorite remote control buttons. Additionally, you can customize different shortcuts for each different device you hook up to your Slingbox! • Audio-only and Slideshow modes Two new ways to watch (or should we say "listen to") your Slingbox, where you can optimize for higher audio quality instead of video quality. These features come in handy if you want to listen to the news or a sports game in a very low-bandwidth environment. • Keyboard shortcuts Virtually every remote control function is mapped to a corresponding key on your keyboard, which can come in quite handy for devices such as the Treo700w. • Hardware button remapping If you have a cable box (or TiVo or satellite receiver or DVD player or anything else with on-screen guides or navigation), you can use hardware buttons (such as up, down, left, right, etc) to control your device!
Official release of SlingPlayer Mobile will be April 26th and will retail for $29.99 along with a 30-day trial. If you purchase and register your Slingbox before April 26th, you will be eligible to receive a free license for SlingPlayer Mobile…don’t miss out on this deal!
