Even though the Slingbox worked in various places in the United States (Florida and my kitchen) I still had doubts that it would work in China. BUT IT DID. This morning I watched the Survivor show with Gail from half way around the world – Ain’t technology great! I still worry about it when the students come back and they start hogging up the ZUFE bandwidth with their online games but lets assume it will still work with only a few hiccups. I look forward to watching the Today show this evening!
Side note: -- not working well tonight – Stream rate was too slow- I had to give up - maybe tomorrow morning.
Second side note -- Whoopee - It worked great this morning - Tim Deagan was as cute as always just irrelevant in terms of Hangzhou weather and The Evening News streamed just fine.
Technology Side note – I am going to try and blame it on jet lag – but 2 days ago I blew up my iPod doc (the speakers that an iPod sits in). I stupidly plugged it into the wrong kind of socket. It tripped a breaker somewhere else in the building and the repairman had to come up to fix it. Oops
