Slingbox at Best Buy

Are you willing to part with $150? My dad just purchased this little bad boy last week before heading on a road trip for 2 weeks. It's called a Slingbox. You set it up with your home entertainment system, connected to your DVR, or cable box... and you can watch anything that is on your tv from anywhere in the world via an ipad/iphone with the app which is $14.99 sold separetely.

He tried it for the Saints/Bucs game while on the road last weekend and said it works absolutely perfectly. You can even control your tv from anywhre, change the channels and what not.

So I think this is better than having to buy the NFL Direct TV package or whatever if all you're interested in is watching Saints games while away from your tv. It could come in handy for a multitude of other things and other occasions. Just imagine when your traveling, flying, and what not, you could watch anything that you could catch on your home television right from your ipad or iphone. Pretty cool stuff.

Download the Puffin web browser (in the app store) so you can have a flash player. Get the free version, and pay $0.99 for the 6 month flash subscription (in-app purchase).

Then go to any website you would normally view the game on.

Much cheaper than any other option out there.

The only problem with that is there are no website that will stream the game.

Does the sling player use a ton of data if you stream the game over a cellular network?

I'm watching the Colts-Chiefs game on my iPad through the NBC app but it's not showing up in the app on iPhone.

That free?

I just downloaded the NFL app, might just pay the 5$ to know I can get it and just cancel it after

The NBC Sports Live Extra app is free. You have to log in to your cable/satellite provider for it to work though.

Fellas, the NBC stuff ain't working. I don't see where to look for it.

Is it NBC or the NBC sports app?
