Slingbox coming to the UK
TiVo introduced the world to ‘time-shifting’ – the practice of being able to record all your fave TV shows and watch them when it was convenient. The Slingbox, from Sling Media, is now doing the same for ‘place-shifting’ and it’s coming to the UK before the end of the year. Blake Krikorian, at Engadget here and check out a US review of Slingbox here. 
It works by redirecting your living room TV signal to wherever you are in the world via broadband Internet. That’s right, no more foreign soaps or badly dubbed 70’s shows when abroad. All you need is the Slingbox at home connected to your TV source and broadband connection. You can tap into it using your laptop or PC abroad via any broadband connection. It supports Windows XP only at the moment but versions for Windows Mobile and Palm are due next. Read an excellent interview with Sling Media CEO,
