Sling have released an update for the Windows Phone version of SlingPlayer that adds support for Mango and has a couple of bug fixes (Grey screen issue and Remote latency). SlingPlayer enables you to watch video from a Slingbox over your network or internet on your phone but you will need a Slingbox SOLO or a PRO-HD. The app is priced at £21.99 which seems a lot considering you have to have one of their boxes as well. I think DVBLink and their Windows Phone app would be a better solution for Media Center users.
