Wink TV over the net: Slingbox Vs Sony Location Free

Hi,

I'm looking to get either a slingbox or a sony location free box to be able to watch tv over the internet. Does anyone have experience of either and just how well does it work?!

Thanks!

Personally I'm aiming at getting the Sony unit in the near future,

couple of reasons really,, the slingbox has a range of 3000 miles, sony appears not to have a restriction.

The sony unit has built in wireless, the slingbox you need to get a wireless adapter unit to with it,,, added cost!

I believe the slingbox has a built in tuner though,, and the Sony has to rely on whatever inputs!

All round though, I think the sony is the better option!
