SlingPlayer for iPad
SlingPlayer Mobile for the iPad allows SlingBox users to stream live TV to their iPad. The SlingBox is a separate device that you hook up to your TV and costs around $200. The box will then stream that video content to you anywhere in the world. It is a great way to turn your iPad into a mobile TV. SlingBoxes can be purchased from a BestBuy or online at the official website. The SlingBox may be a better option than EyeTV for many. The benefit of the SlingBox is that you do not need a Mac sitting next to your TV.
