I have it installed but it doesn't work with the resolution and I haven't had a chance to play with the settings and see if i can make it adjust. :-(

I contacted Slingplayer via their web based talk/chat. They told me they do not support the Treo 800W and did not know when they would come up with a fix. I posted my findings on Treocentral along with some bad news about iGuidance, in the 800W section.

Yeah, I reported it to support@slingmedia.com. Hopefully if enough of us report it will get more attention.

I found a way for it to work...but not well. In the advance tab in options, click on Use GDI Rendering. You'll get the picture now instead of the lines, but it will be very small.

If not too much trouble to could someone post a pic of what the screen looks like with the workaround? I'm dying to get an 800w, but must have slingbox mobile working since I use it almost every day. Thx

Here you go:
My wife is 8.5 months pregnant, so she's always watching Discovery Health and pregnancy shows.
oh, and the picture actually looks cleaner than it did on my Mogul...just smaller.

ok tks .. good enough for me, even though the size is small, I assume there will be less choppiness with the Rev A speeds. I'm off to the sprint store!

I agree with you the picture might be smaller for now but the clarity is amazing compared to my husbands Mogul.

well it should be, the picture is a size of a postage stamp
Maybe you could make it even bigger by changing the resolution to 320x240

One of the killer apps goes to the "somewhat working" list. This will be good enough until Sling updates their product or Nyditot gets to my request(s).

If you haven't done so already, please follow hannip's advice and send an email to Slingmeida at support@slingmedia.com. I'm sure that if enough of us send them messages, they'll do what they need to do to fix this for us.

Request sent. I was an original beta tester of SlingPlayer Mobile and also the Slingbox PRO, so I'll get with my personal contacts at Sling Media and work on this, as well.

I too have contacted my contacts at Sling. Now does anyone have contacts at Nyditot so we can put all these resolution issues to bed?
