I've got Dish Network satellite TV at home and just came across the Sling Media website, where I found a lot of cool things coming for the iPhone. Not only will they release the Sling player which we all heard about at CES, but they will also have remote DVR programming via the iPhone, and additionally you'll be able to use the iPhone as a very sophisticated remote while at home watching TV.
Check it out!

I hope it all works as good as it looks.
Sure is cool to know that, these days, when a company wants to release a really slick mobile app, they will almost always turn to the iPhone/Touch first. I'm constantly reminded that I made the best choice possible in choosing a smartphone.
And I can see these new features compelling some Dish customers to run out and get a Touch to function as a high end remote for their home theater.
