SlingPlayer Mobile for iPad is finally getting near to release. A short video walkthrough of the new app has been posted on Sling’s official YouTube account. The video emphasises that the app is all about the quality of the video, due to Apples excellent H.264 streaming capabilities. The interface looks very similar to other recent versions of Sling Player Mobile.
Now here is the bad news, Sling Player Mobile for iPad will be a separate app, no universal binary love here. If you already have the iPhone version you will have to pay again for the iPad version. It will cost another $30, the same price as the current iPhone version.
Also, Sling point out that the iPad version will only work with Slingbox PRO-HD and Slingbox SOLO equipment. Legacy versions do not have the hardware capability to stream at the iPad’s higher resolution.
No word on when this is going to hit the app store; but you can sign up now, to be kept up to date on availability information.
Are you are looking forward to this app? Do you think it is fair that you will have to pay again for the iPad version? Let us know in the comments!
