You will get a kick out of this.

Just when I found out how to keep Slingplayer Mobile running and running and
running Slingmedia releases a new version of their software that doesn't
like networks below 120k and they basically come right out and tell you
that..

So now I have two problems.
1. If I upgrade to the new version and run it with an EDGE network then
their new version shuts me down in about 15 minutes.

2. If I don't upgrade, so I can use a network that runs at 100k I'll be
forever hounded by the message telling me to upgrade whenever I start the
slingplayer.

Needless to say I'm pissed and sent them an e-mail stating the two issues
above.
