Treo smartphone users will now have the option to view and control their home television experience at broadband-like speeds using the Slingbox and SlingPlayer Mobile Software. 
In other words, you will now be able to watch TV on 3G enabled Palm OS devices, such as the Treo 700p.
The SlingPlayer Mobile for Palm OS will feature an enhanced navigation control, enticing graphical interface, while maintaining the ease of use and functionality of the Palm OS and Treo Smartphone. SlingPlayer Mobile is a software client that gives Slingbox customers the ability to watch and control their home TV from a wirelessly enabled smartphone.
SlingPlayer Mobile now supports Treo smartphones running both Palm OS and Windows Mobile, including the Treo 700p, the Treo 700w, the Treo 700wx and the recently announced Treo 750.
SlingPlayer Mobile is different from other services that are currently available for mobile phones and computers. It gives consumers their entire home TV experience. Anything that can be watched on your TV at home, can now be watched on a Treo 700p smartphone. As well, you can control a home digital video recorder (DVR) to record shows, watch previously recorded shows, and pause and rewind live TV.
The new software, expected to be available Q1 '07 as public beta software that can be downloaded from their site. It will be demonstrated at the Anytime-Anywhere Tech Zone in the Sands Expo & Convention Center, Sling Media booth, No. 69430. Pricing has not yet been determined.
