"Two of the new Slingboxes are going to sell for 179 dollars and are about 400 percent the resolution and video quality than the original one. One product is called the Slinbox AV. There's also a Slingbox Tuner, which is for people who want to just plug in their basic cable. And then lastly, we have a product called the Singbox Pro, which is for people who have high definition video sources such as a high definition DVR or a high definition cable box."
The price, 250 dollars with a high definition kit an additional 50 dollars. Sling's viewing software runs on desktop PCs, notebooks….and some mobile phones as well such as Motorola's Q. That may not sit well with mobile carriers that want to sell their own TV services. The Slingbox experience is better…because it gives you access to the cable or satellite channels you're already paying for…from anywhere. Bloomberg Boot Camp, I'm Fred Fishkin.-
