Default SlingPlayer Mobile Version Reviewed by Clinton Fitch

http://www.clintonfitch.com/reviews/sling/spmobile/default.asp

"The mobile version of the SlingPlayer allows you to use your Windows Mobile Pocket PC (and soon Windows Mobile Smartphone) to view your local television and recorded content right on the device! Further, there is no programming of the client required. When you synchronize your device with your PC with ActiveSync, all of the Slingbox information is copied to your device. Literally, you can be watching television from your Windows Mobile device within minutes. SlingPlayer Mobile is installed either by ActiveSync or by a direct CAB install on your Windows Mobile device and will require approximately 1.3MB of storage space. The player can be installed either in your device’s main memory or on a storage card."

Currently, only the Pocket PC is supported, but Clinton confirms that a Smartphone client is coming soon. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like he was able to review the Smartphone client. For those of you in Canada, never fear, Sling is getting set to launch these north of the border really soon.
