Just the other day, I got a Sling Box from Radio Shack for $100, normally $249! I'm just seeing if anyone else has tried Sling Box and how did it work for them? Has anyone tried it on their Mac? And what do you guys think about people saying its the 2006 edition to Napster when it comes to getting TV anywhere around the world.

or ????

I've read several reviews of the SlingBox that were not glowing and rosy. It's apparently heavy in the setup department (as in lots of stuff for the user to do) and light in the performance department ('nuf said). However, all of the reviews I read were from Windows users, so using it with a Mac may be different.
