SlingAccounts?
It seems to be getting worse for us Mac users. Apparently SlingPlayer for the iPhone depends heavily for configuration and setup on SlingAccounts which is a service that is only available for PCs running Windows. If you are a Mac-only user then you can still use SlingPlayer but the setup is completely manual and you can't use some conveniences that rely on SlingAccounts. I don't think this affects video playback, per se, just the setup and user preferences.
In any case, I think the Mac version of SlingAccounts is being worked on and may become available fairly soon.
Sling Community now has a complete review of SlingPlayer for the iPhone/iPod touch. They have confirmed that it is WiFi only. Here is the link to the review:
