I heard about Slingbox about 4 years ago on SIRIUS Radio in particular the Howard Stern show and Gary mentioned it a lot on the Wrap up Show. It's a product that connects to your Cable or Satellite TV box amongst other things and allows you to connect and control that device elsewhere like on a computer or mobile phone or even send it to another TV.
About 2 years ago my older brother moved to China but wanted to watch Green Bay Packers games. My mom suggested we buy him a Slingbox Christmas. He set it up and was able to watch his cable box here in Chicago via the internet and Slingbox.
Even though I had some exposure with it I didn't get to use it until about 2 months ago. I pay for Howard TV on my brothers cable box so I could go over and catch up with it. I moved to a building that comes with free Direct TV and thus can't get On Demand services. I finally was able to connect up my laptop with a Slingbox hooked to his Cable Box. Now even though I have Satellite TV I can catch shows on Demand like things on HBO and Howard TV. It hit me as soon as I was able to use it that this product has that same excitement as I had experienced with Satellite Radio. And thus we've just added the Slingbox line of products to our website here.
Ultimately our business, TSS offers some electronics but we try to keep it to things we really believe in and I'm thrilled that Slingbox will now be a part of our business.
