SlingPlayer Mobile available for FREE for new Slingbox customers + final version for MS Smartphone released August 22, 2006 [General] | By Edward J. R. Previously we have published review of SlingPlayer Mobile for Pocket PC and now final version also for Wndows Mobile Smartphone has been released together with information, that if you buy Slingbox now, you can get mobile version of the player (i.e. for Windows Mobile) for free - for a limited time however. 
Actually it is strange, that SlingMedia is so greedy, that it is not providing free SlingPlayer Mobile for all SlingBox customers - always - and not just for a limited time... Information from Sling Media follows. * * * * * * SlingPlayer Mobile TV Software Available Free for a Limited Time to New Slingbox Customers Customers who buy and register a Slingbox between August 15, 2006 and September 16, 2006 will receive a free registration key for either SlingPlayer Mobile for Pocket PC or the just released version of SlingPlayer Mobile for Windows Smartphone, a $29.99 value!
