It is not really designed for someone to watch tv on their laptop at home in their living room. My brother travels probably 40 weeks a year and is always on the road. He is fanatical about his slingbox because he has the comforts of his home system with his pvr and all that offers while he is on the road. He is not limited to hotel room basic cable, plus he can watch hometown sporting events and more.
It is not a device for everyone, but it is a useful device for some people. Me personally? i can turn my 15.4" laptop into an extended tv. Take my tv out on the patio, or even in the bathroom. How can you beat that?
