GADGET NEWS | HOT KIT
http://www.electricpig.tv/news/hot-k...o-iphone.thtml
January 9th, 2008
TV fans will soon be watching their favorite shows live on Apple's
iPhone and iPod touch. We just had a chat with an extremely senior
source at Sling, who said: "iPhone and iPod touch are OS X devices,
and we can write OS X apps with our eyes closed. It's coming."
Specific dates for the new software are fuzzy at best, but with Steve
Jobs having pledged a development kit by February, and due to take to
the stage at Macworld in less than a week, we'd expect it extremely
soon.
Strangely, our source said the iPod touch could provide a better
platform for Slingplayer, thanks to its exclusive Wi-Fi connection.
The company appears to be concerned that Edge is not fast enough to
stream TV at acceptable quality, resulting in a poor experience for
customers.
"We know the 3G iPhone's coming" said our source, "so that'll
obviously be better. But for now the iPod touch could end up being the
best way to use Slingplayer."

Of course not -- EGPRS(EDGE) is fast enough for very good video quality
at iPod screen size.
