Here’s a boring video if you missed the boring screencast by NASA this morning. The best part is definitely at the 5:00 mark. Someone gets denied a high five real hard. Made me feel like I was watching an episode of the office.

Well, the wait is over, but my worst fear has been realized.  SlingPlayer mobile is here for the iPhone…with no 3G support:

After what has become one of the longer (and certainly one of the highest-profile) App Store approval delays, SlingPlayer Mobile for iPhone has finally gotten Apple’s blessing — with some serious changes under the hood. Most importantly, 3G access has been disabled, meaning you’ll only be able to get your Sling on over WiFi — a serious blow to the app and a huge change from the way SlingPlayer Mobile works on other platforms — and likely a verification that either Apple or AT&T took serious issue with the bandwidth load imposed by this type of app on the HSPA network. Despite the restriction, Sling will be charging a whopping $29.99 for the download; in exchange for your troubles, though, they’ve decided to lift the ban on older Slingboxes, with the caveat that they won’t be officially supported if you run into trouble.

Thanks, but no thanks.

Anybody want to buy a SlingBox?  I don’t want to own one if I can’t use it on my iPhone over 3G.

On a broader note, there’s a serious bandwidth issue in the United States.  In the age of the internet, I shouldn’t have to suffer through sub-par products because AT&T sucks at life and is worried about their bandwidth.  Grow some balls and pony up the money to make a legit network, and maybe people won’t bitch and moan all the time.

Meanwhile, in Japan, wireless companies are gearing up to deploy their 4G networks…

That’s an interesting angle to be getting that type of reflection, don’t you think?

Ryan Seacrest attempts to high-five a blind person, quickly realizing that he can’t see the initiation of it.

Sorry Choof … but …
