Sling

I managed to watch the Calgary vs. Detroit game 2 live. It was on at 1pm ET, which is only 6 hours behind me, so it was on at 7pm here. I did this by borrowing a friend of a friend's "Slingbox" connection. Basically it is connected to a person's cable box and computer/internet in Canada, and then you can watch it over the internet from anywhere in the world. It was sweet, except that we lost badly again.

If anyone out there has one, or is thinking about getting one, man would I like to watch it sometime... The 2 English channels I get here show episodes of stuff from 2 years ago. Plus there's no CBC for hockey, no TSN for curling or baseball, no Late Night with Conan...
