It has been tested and isn't as expensive as some may think.
For those who don't know what a Sling-box is, it's a device that streams your videos from you computer/TV or what ever.
The Spawn HD-720 is great because you can use it to have "local play" over the internet! So does that mean possibly not paying for Xbox Live if you want to play custom games all day with your friends? The system costs about $200 but just like PS3 online, no monthly fees to use their system.
According to Gizmodo.com,"It works great with little lag even on a basic $500 Core 2 Duo Laptop."
What's the use for this thing? How about when you want your nice Xbox or PS3 hooked up to your big 60-inch HDTV and its being used and it's difficult to unhook. Well, you can now stream the game to your computer and play as if you had it hooked up where ever you are in your house.
The big test of this product is it's marketing, user-
friendliness, and of course will it work for games that are super big data rates.
