seems so expensive though... 300 bucks
Yea it is, I have the older non HD version which you can probably find on ebay for $150. I didnt buy it with the intention of using it on my phone, that was an added bonus. I travel alot and am a huge jets fan. with the slingbox i could watch the games where ever i was, and the only other option was NFL sunday ticket from direct TV - which i think is like $299 so it made sense getting one

makes sense I guess. The HD one really provides a good HDstream? I was wondering if you could record shows with that thing as well?
I dont know too much about the HD one, the regular one works just fine for me - i have a 47 inch 1080p HD tv that i hook it up too from my computer when im not home - gratned the quality itsnt the best but its more then watchable (expecially for streaming media blown up that big) . . . upsteam connections from my house are around 800k, and it uses all that is available which is stable for the most part.
I think i saw somewhere on the website something about a Hard drive and DVR functionality.
looks like there is some 3rd party software that lets you record from it.

Yea I agree skyfire is nice try but not really a feasible thing... especially probably not for VGA devices... Damn ADOBE GET WITH IT...
If Playon transcodes the stream based on pipe size or media renderer, you could easily get uPNP working by setting up a VPN. I haven't heard of many other media servers that will do netflix (at least not stable).
Has their been a Dish Network Remote access app for windows mobile? I tried searching for one and don't think there is one yet. It'll be great if someone made one but Dish Network will most likely make one in a few years maybe.
why is windows mobile so far behind. its a shame.
Dish Sling Adapter App for WM
I, too, would like to know why there is no Windows Mobile App for the Dish Sling Adapter. I love watching my recorded and live shows on my laptop when I am away from home. However, I do not carry my laptop with me everyday like I carry my phone. So what is causing the delay?
Stumbled across this when streaming free TV app. They have a great deal of content, live channel, movies on demand and HBO, HBO needs a Window Plug-In though. The Other players work and are built in, some optimized for Adobe 10.1, the others, not so good. Overall, I think 24.99 subscription for first 6 months is very reasonable for what is available. You can watch on multiple computers as long as you want. Streaming live TNT works really well on Nexus in stock browser. Also player allows you to go full screen. After first 6 months it goes back to regular price of 35 or 36 something like that. But if you don't like you can always cancel. They also have great support, from what I have read. Right now I'm streaming HBO from my PC and simultaneously TNT from my phone logged in at both places. So if you want live TV on your phone at an affordable price,with a wide variety of content, this is an option. It's user friendly with search bar, and built in players.

Must be a full moon or something. This is the app theme section right, No spam here. It's not actually an app but , I thought others might be interested in the option. It streams through the browser live shows that are on TV. Is that better for you?
how legit is this ive been lookin for away to save cash and i can hook my laptop to my 55 inch tv

I'm not trying to convince anyone to get this. I have it now and using it on three different computers, 2 laptops and the Nexus. Just have a look around and see. It's not something you hook up to your TV like Sling Box. Basically it uses the function of Adobe 10.1 and brings a variety of TV and live TV content to our phones and computers. You could probably find these place on your own each site and bookmark them, but i don't want to deal with that hassle. I tried looking for a few places by Googling them, and a lot of times I came up empty or it was just video, not live streams.

Not to be a forum nazi or anything but if its not a Theme and if its not a app then perhaps its better off in the General Section?

In my opinion. It is worth it. Here's what I know works straight from the phone , tried and tested. FX Channel, USA Network, TNT, TBS, MSNBC, CNN, HISTORY CHANNEL, ESPN, FOOD NETWORK, LIFETIME MOVIE NETWORK AND DISCOVERY CHANNEL. All of these channel work very well on the Nexus one right off the browser. So, hell yes, it is worth it. and you can use it on multiple computers. I already feel my money was well spent. And those are the immediate channels that I tested. Very good quality. Plus the built in player allows you to go full screen.
To the person who said something about not being a Nazi. This is really an app or software that works directly with Adobe 10.1 Flash. If you don't have that app, it wont work. So, really this is only an option available to those who have FROYO. It is an outside app, software that works through the browser as a subscription, that streams live TV using Adobe app Flash 10.1. the player is exclusive to them, BoxLIVE TV streamer and that is also part of the package that is being payed for. Without it it wont work on the phone.
The only channel that doesn't work on the phone is HBO. It does however work on the computer lap top with Windows Media player 11 plug in.

Isn't that pretty expensive?
When I go on 1TVPC it says there's just a one time fee of $24.99.. no monthly charges and stuff.

24.99 is for the first 6 months. Then 34.99 for every 6 months after. Jetflicks TV in the market is 29.99 for 6 months and doesn't offer any live channels, but has a wide variety to choose from.(shows). Sling box is connected to your cable TV. Which means you must have the Sling Box and cable tv + the app in order for it to work. Approximately 200 for box and and app on the market and the price of your cable every month. 1tvpc you don't need cable at all. All premium channels work on the Nexus except HBO. FX, USA,TNT TBS SPIKE TRUTV DISCOVERY CHANNEL CNN MSNBC HISTORY CHANNEL ESPN ESPN 2 LIFETIME MOVIE NETWORK ABC CBS NBC all these live channels work on Nexus. Plus there is no interruption like Mobi TV asking if your still watching. I fell asleep watching TNT in the morning when I awoke it was still on, streaming on Nexus. You can also create favorites so all you channels are easy to navigate within one location.
Does anybody know of a remote client that actually works?
The only one I have found is impossible to use because the keyboard for entering address/id/pw is not even there to get started!
If I could get something like Pocket Cloud on here ... this thing would pay for itself.
I'm in the same boat as OP, I really need a windows rdp app for my touchpad
Ubuntu
I installed the ubuntu chroot on to the TouchPad. I then used the rdesktop application with tsclient frontend.
It actually works pretty well.
You even get a keyboard. No right click though..
This isn't out yet, but evidently it's getting close:

great news
Can't wait - I am already using their remote desktop HD on android .
apparently out today - I've just bought a copy. Requires the use of a desktop streamer tho, so might not be your cuppa tea. Haven't finished installing yet but the reviews so far are nearly all 5/5 stars
I picked it up this morning. I've only tried it over the Internet so far because my work machine is on a private network while my TouchPad is only allowed on the guest network at work. Performance is still decent, but I've heard that on a LAN it screams (e.g., streaming video/audio works well). I'll set that up with my home machines in a bit.
I've seen a few people complaining about paying $10 for it...good lord...most of us paid $100-150 for the tablet and this effectively turns it into a portable remote terminal for $10! I know mobile computing apps have kind of redefined what we perceive as "value" with $0.99 apps, but if you're looking for a remote desktop-type app and this one isn't worth $10 for you, I'm really not sure what to tell you...
agreed SCWells72 - when I upgraded from PCAnywhere 11 to 12 back in the day so I could get the mobile app for my iPAQ that was about a hundred bucks, so spending $10 (about 7 quid in the UK) is peanuts. You're right - this is the last piece I needed for webOS to tick all my boxes.
Not yet sure if SplashTop supports file transfer, but that would be a massive advantage if it does!
Do anyone find that splashtop streamer too much of a resource hog? Unlike rdp, my computer is really slow.
Anyone know about what happened to 2x client?
Would be great if there was a linux alternative

No file transfer and it does scream locally. I have tried it on my isp's public wifi (my cable company offers g wifi across its footprint to customers) and found it very usable. Though Chrome browser and the two finger scrolling is PITA.
Going away with the wife and have decided that between smartphone and the touchpad, it will be enough tech to carry.

FYI... Today's Amazon Freeby is a good one for those of you who would like to access your PC from your android desktop. Its a very capable remote Desktop Client called Splashtop. It usually runs 5 bucks, but its free today.

I went for it, too. I'm not thrilled about having both Splashtop Streamer and Logmein running constantly on my computer, but I'm definitely not paying $29 for Logmein's app so that I can use it maybe once every couple of months. Tried out Spashtop Streamer, and it works pretty well.
Yea i use the HD version of this app on my Xoom. Its great run prefect. You can even play games on your PC thought your tablet or phone as long as the game is in window mode.
