I flew on a PS flight JFK-SFO with a fellow F/t'er and friend during the Red Sox/Tigers baseball playoffs last year and she had Slingbox. She set it up via gogo wifi on her netbook and I was able to watch the game*. There were a few freezes which required a reboot but the quality was good overall (including minimal sound & video mismatch such as the sound of the ball hitting the bat after the video showed the hit)
*at least hat I watched as I was also busy chatting with a f/a I knew tho I digress
