    it's pretty cool. I set one up at my house so my brother could watch Padres games from out of state. The quality of the picture varies with the available bandwidth, which is generally a good thing. I wouldn't really recommend it for a TV replacement, but it's perfect for using it to stay up to date with sporting events, news, etc..

    Also, there's no subscription service which is nice. It's a minor bitch to set up though because you have to reconfigure your router, but it's totally doable. I think the main drawback is that you have to have the sling media player installed on your computer/phone/etc... to connect to it.
