  I own the slingbox solo and have used it to stream mainly sporting events to my iPhone which has an unlimited data plan through AT&T. I also stream shows to my ipad when I am on vacation and have access to wifi and want to catch up on my DVR recorded shows. My Solo is 3 years old and hasnt had any problems so I figured I'd upgrade to the 350 to get better resolution. Set-up was a breeze after hooking up the Slingbox to my set top cable box. I logged onto my computer and launched the guide and within 5 minutes I was streaming TV to all of my devices. Being very tech, it is easy for me to say lots of electronics are easy to set up but knowing this I can say that 95% of you can easily set this slingbox up within minutes. If you want to use this to stream TV to your ipad/iphone expect to pay for your apps separately. But luckily once you pay for the app you own it forever and can download the app to as many devices as you own. http://amzn.to/1r32ecL
