Does the Slingbox work with the Iphone? Would be awesome if I can watch tv with this beautiful screen.

I want to know the answer to this as well? Anyone know?

No. It would require a third-party client. Which at this time Apple does not allow.

Hopefully they will allow some real third party clients in the future.

I did read somewhere though that the slingbox people want to develop a iPhone slingbox app when it becomes able to do so

they made an app for apple tv so i wouldnt be surprised if someone could make it work. however, an att rep told me using slingbox on ANY of their phones/plans was against the terms of service. just so ya know...they could cut you off if your data useage is ridiculously high

Its in development. Slingbox is not compatible with iPhone yet.

I was wondering the same thing...it would be too cool to catch TV on my iPhone. I am a C.S.I. and it would be informative to watch the local news when I've worked a scene. I'm on night shift and by the time I finish a scene the 11 o' clock news has been over for a long time. And if not Slingbox, what about a television feed on the phone itself like MobiTV or YouTube?[/QUOTE]

I have a slingbox that I use with my Treo 750. Let me just say that Slingbox is painful to use with an EDGE connection. You would have to have the best possible EDGE speed to make it semi-watchable.

Perhaps by the time Sling releases a client, a 3G iPhone will be available.

Okay, then here's my next question, and boy, does this sound stupid to ask. Is it possible to upgrade the current iPhone to 3G from EDGE? Is 3G only via a sim card (which of course, the iPhone doesn't have)? I just hate to put out that kind of money again, but then again, it seems like if you're into this, you just seem to suck it up every two years and get that newer phone anyways. Time to start saving now....I do have a Treo 650 for sale...and an 80 gb iPod...anyone wanna buy? They're both for sale!! LOL
