I do this all the time around the globe and video quality from the slingbox is very good with just 1mb on both ends.
But bandwidth is not the only concern, latency and jitter are 2 more to consider, east coast to west coast will already be in the range of 80-100ms, and that's not including any added latency/jitter due to potentially poor public/hotel wifi connections.
