slingbox app for iphone, anyone??

[n2dzny]

my boyfriend has mentioned this to me SEVERAL times, he has asked for it for Christmas. It's only $30 for the app, but is there a monthly fee? He says that you can watch tv on your phone anytime, anywhere. Tell me about it. Can you generally watch anything, anytime or is it selective? He will mainly watch ESPN, but I want to make sure it does what I think it does. Need feedback. TIA

We have it. There are two components: the first is a box that hooks into your cable box. I bought ours on Amazon for about $150. It allows you to watch the tv on a computer. The second part is the app for iphone. After you pay for it, there's no monthly charge.

We have the base slingbox. It requires a cable box and your internet hook-up must be beside the cable box.

It also sucks battery life super-fast.
