Slingbox for Mac Goes Beta

What if you were able to access your home television system wherever you went? The World Cup in your cubicle. Your local news station from overseas. Dirty Jobs in your backyard.

“We are now taking applications to be part of the Mac private beta program. The application will be live for the next 2 weeks (14 days – it closes on 07/26/06)… due to the expected high number of applicants, you will only hear from us if you are selected. Finally, you must be able to sign an NDA/non-compete with the company in order to be part of the private beta pool. “

When could Apple users see a final version of the SlingPlayer for Mac OS X? Probably in Q3 2006 according to the Wikipedia Slingbox page.
