I'm not really concerned about having a better signal or watching on the hotel TV. For me, the ability to watch something I couldn't watch (or something off my DVR) is what I like.

I was at the Austin DO this February and remember a handful of people huddled around my iPhone watching the gold medal men's hockey game on the Slingbox App. I find the resolution on a small screen like this to be remarkable, even with the old, old SB I have.
