Amir over at Phone-Rush found a sweet deal on a new N95-3 (that’s the regular N95, with US 3G support (WCDMA 850/1900MHz)) and a Slingbox Solo for only $549. Seeing as how the N95-3, at most places, is still right at $500, this is a killer deal. The Slingbox Solo typically goes for $100-150, so you’re getting quite a bit of savings here.
If you’re not familiar with the Slingbox, you can read our encounter here (it’s awesome). Basically, the Slingbox hooks up to your TV and cable box and allows you to watch live TV on your phone (or laptop) from anywhere you have a data connection. N95-3 owners can find the Slingbox Mobile application in their Download! app, or get it straight from SlingMedia.com. For a while, they were giving the application away to N95-3 owners, but if not, it’s only $30.
The Slingbox doesn’t require any monthly fees or anything, you just hook it up and go. It allows you to remotely control your TV, so you can even watch anything on your DVR, and it works over WIFI or 3G.
