The new DISH function on SlingPlayer Mobile 1.1 allows you to gain access to the content guide directly to your iPhone.

Sling Media have given this update faster speeds when establishing connections, as well as when you change your channel and when using the functions on the remote control. Once Apple approves SlingPlayer Mobile 1.1, users will then be able to enjoy watching content with a 16 x 9 aspect ratio.
