Upon further investigation, Sling Media is also developing a unit called SlingCatcher (not yet available for sale) - which does the other part of the equation, taking the slingbox encoded data from ethernet and converting it back to view on your TV. SlingCatcher also supports usb hard drives in order to allow for PVR functionality to record the streamed content.

Thanks for the info. The SlingCatcher thing sounds interesting. Hopefully
Sadoun will keep an eye out for it.
