I just bought a Slingbox Pro HD and this app. HD quality looks good on a laptop using Slings web app, but the mobile android app on a tablet looks like Standard Definition even when using a high speed WIFI connection. Hopefully they'll update the app to account for a WIFI connection and scale up the video quality. Not worth the $30 if they don't fix the quality.

Everything is great but can you add a pause feature like on the pc ...

Never a problem with my Evo, including player 1.3. I called support to ask about Android 2.3 issues since Evo is getting 2.3, and they claim there is no problem and their engineers always respond to questions in the forum. Nothing like denial. For this, I lower my rating.
