Another Happy and Cheap Airline Pilot! :D:D:D

I thought it was also for the USB plug and the speaker plug! :cool:

I own 3-4 Airport Expresses, use them in my barn/barn apartment, to stream music from any open iTunes on the home network to powered speakers and an AV jack on a book shelf stereo plugged into an Airport Express. One I had a USB hub plugged into it with 2 printers plugged into the hub until I got my newest printer, which is wifi enabled. That Airport Express now has a ROKU plugged into it to join the home network to get some internet streaming content to my TV and a pair of speakers plugged in that I stream my iTunes to in the living room.

I've also got 3 Airport Expresses throughout the house and stream music from my computer to upstairs speakers, downstairs mancave speakers, and/or outdoor speakers by the lake. Stuff is simple and it works AUTOMATICALLY as stated earlier.

The Airport Express has a big advantage for those of us who travel--no power cord!

That can be a disadvantage depending on where the nearest plug is and how long your, or the hotel's, ethernet cable is. The fix is separating the MacBook cord from the power supply and using it on the Airport Express and putting the Airport Express plug on the MacBook power supply.

Never had a problem with that.

Don't have a Macbook, though.

I almost bought one for hubby for christmas but I think the slingbox's days may already be numbered. Verizon FiOS (our tv/internet service) has the capabilty to watch a DVR remotely. I think its a matter of time before we will be able to watch live tv that as as well.

Yeah, got FIOS and you can watch ESPN3 too, but there's nothing says "Home" halfway around the world like watching a hometown car dealer's commercial :D. Get him a Slingbox, he's worth it, right?

Good point. I may just pick one up tomorrow.

I bought the Solo model Slingbox last week and it set up fine. I am on a trip now and it worked OK on the first day and now I am getting a message that says "your current browser is not supported" any ideas?
