But the Slingbox has to connect to the cable box. I also have the option to just attach to my cable outlet. I was looking at the Pinnacle PCTV HD Ultimate Stick but it wasn't clear if I needed to hook up through the cable set top box or not. And, gee what a surprise, the Best Buy clerk was not too much help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scenario Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 I like the Slingbox recommendation. I'm going to be doing that pretty soon myself. Just haven't pulled the trigger yet. I've seen some pretty good deals on newegg.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipps Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 I remember when tin foil used to be the cure all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
