I'm a bit of a TV addict, I like certain shows and certain sporting events, but I travel a lot, so I found this little contraption great for letting me watch my normal shows on both my laptop and phone. Every feature that's available on your TV remote control is accessible through the included SlingPlayer software for your Windows or Mac laptop. This means you can view your electronic program guide (EPG), change the channels, queue a recording on your DVR, or even watch pay-per-view movies.
