Just heard about Sling Box with hotspot you can get your local cable anywhere,anyone use this?
I have a DISH Hopper with Sling and use DISH Anywhere so I can get whatever is on my Hopper on my iPad or iPhone.
The Slingbox M1 works the same way . . . except it works with any cable box.
However, if the Slingbox M1 (or Hopper w/Sling) and your iPad are on different WiFi networks (which will be likely on a boat), then you will probably burn up a lot of broadband data.
