I'd be curious to hear about your personal experience and see what you feel we could do better! Regarding market sizing, I think your thinking is right, but don't misestimate the size of the travelers market, and also keep in mind that home use is one of the most popular features of the Slingbox (e.g. my wife watches while I play Xbox, or use it in the backyard, etc). Also, we do intend to build the company beyond just this product! Best, Jeremy ps - Go Habs pps - Yes, Jim C is one of the top Slingbox authorities in Canada! ;) Mark,

It was his wife back home in Long Island, telling him to quit changing the channel, because she was watching through the slingbox upstairs in their house.
