Given that it was not brodcast here (a big obstacle) and given that it was on at 2:30am (a lesser deterrent), I told him, "sadly, no". He said, "you've got to get 'slingbox'". (Then he explained.) Even though you're a day late on the idea, I appreciate the corroboration! I've gotta get slingbox!

I was recently in Vegas for vacation, and my friend connected to his slingbox from his mobile phone! We were watching the Celtics game on his phone from his home TV while at dinner in the Casino.
