Slingbox M2 En Route

By way of some updated product pages Sling Media prematurely published and then pulled, but fortunately cached by Google, we see a Slingbox M2 is on the way. Like every Slingbox, the OG and still most liberating TV Everywhere solution, the M2 is designed to beam your television content both around the home and beyond to computers, set-tops, and mobiles. The obvious successor to the wireless 1080p Slingbox M1, which we quite liked … until the ad blitz, the M2 appears to clock in at the same $150 MSRP. Beyond the name, I wasn’t able to glean much from the limited description and will just go ahead an assume Echostar’s goal here is to reduce the company’s hardware expenses while improving the end-user experience. But how much demand will there be given the vast number of competitive streaming options out there, that possibly cover many people’s needs much of the time?

Slingbox® M2
It’s like having an entourage of entertainment
There’s nothing we like more on a rainy day than curling up on the couch with a blanket and the remote. But when the sun resurfaces, so do we. That doesn’t mean we should miss out on live TV; that just means we hook up the Slingbox M2. Shows and channels follow us to the beach, the slopes, or the lake on our iPhone, Android, tablet or laptop. So remember: SPF30 & M2.
