is there a device that does what the slingbox can do but that is voice
over friendly? or is the slingbox the only choice at this time?

Hello Hank and all.
I have tried the www.slingbox.com site. I cannot access the information on
either the Mac or Windows sides with the plugin installed. It appears to be
imbed flash and I can't access the listings.
I have been using the SlingBox 500 successfully with the SlingPlayer on my phone. The
iPhone Version actually reads out the channel list as well as the program description. .
I had to Label many of the buttons The "power" button for the receiver being
really important.
On the iPad I get channel numbers but no listing. I can enter a channel
number. The only way I have found to stop play is to lock the screen on either
unit.
Now if memory serves me correctly Jonathan Mosen was a SlingBox user so
Jonathan perhaps if I am correct are you still using the beast and if so, how?
In my opinion they have a lot of work to do in terms of making their apps
accessible out-of-the-box. I can say with certainty the iPhone definitely
works if you are willing to take the time to label the buttons. Most of the
time you can figure out these buttons from the existing labels. I do not use
the DVR features.
Hope this helps.

As of Monday I will be training at the Seeing Eye so will be looking forward to
checking my sling player out while there as I miss Canadian news when away.
