Sling Media Rolls Out Their Latest Offering the Slingbox SOLO

Hot off the heals of the big news of being acquired by EchoStar, Sling Media has released the Slingbox SOLO, a mid-level offering that is geared toward people that only care about viewing one input. The Slingbox PRO is their higher end model while the Slingbox AV is their base unit.

We have completely seen the light when it comes to placeshifting TV as of late and if you were ever curious about trying this out the SOLO might be perfect. One thing we love is the ability to be upstairs in the office while watching our TV that is downstairs. If you had asked us 4 months ago if we would recommend one of these to people we would have been luke warm. Now after having played with it for awhile we can't talk about it enough.

The other great thing about these products is if you happen to travel a lot and would like access to your stored shows on your Tivo. With the Slingbox and some fiddling with your home network you can do it. For $180 it isn't a bad deal at all and we think you will wonder why you didn't jump on this bandwagon earlier.
