Office clean-out continues: Slingbox Classic is up for grabs
Now what am I going to do with two Slingboxes? Sure, I could stream multiple channels of content, but I don’t want to be greedy. Besides there’s only so many times I can watch "High School Musical 2". No, I’d rather share the Sling experience with a jkOTR reader, so here’s your chance to win a barely used Slingbox Classic. [Sorry, I'm keeping the Slingbox PRO that's connected to my HDTV receiver!]
You know the drill; just leave a comment in this thread and my kids will pick a random winner on Friday. You can try to be clever in your comment, but I’ll be honest, they won’t read ‘em all! 
You have until the end of the day on Thursday to enter. This might not be popular with some, but I’m going to limit this one to our readers in the U.S. and Canada since Sling supports those countries and we’ve got the whole NTSC thing going on here for television broadcasts. Hey don’t complain to me: go hit up your government and fuss about broadcast standards, ‘k?
Tofel’s kids Rock!
(I just thought that brown-nosing works no matter what age you are)
Seriously, though, this is tops in my daily blog reading. Keep up the great work. It is appreciated.
Oooh Oooh Pick me Pick me!
me me me please
Sling it my way please…
If you pick me, your Dad will take you to get double scoop ice cream cones!
Hello there kids. Pick me…pretty please with a cherry on top of the double scoop ice cream cones your Dad will buy you.
I can’t think of anything cool to say but you will pick me anyway right?
Ice cream? Poppa will get you a poney if you pick me!
This would be great for my pregnant wife. So help her out ok? Thanks.
I hit up my government and they replied:
1. What does ‘hit up’ mean?
2. What’s NTSC?
3. What’s slingbox?
4. What’s a broadcasting standard?
PS You don’t need to include me in your prize thingy (I don’t live in any of the countries you mentioned), I just wanted to reply to one of your posts today.
I’m on the list. Birthdays are coming up…
Pick me .. I would use it all the time.
yes please!
I would love to have one of those.
I have to enter this one!
I’d definitely like to win this one.
Dear Kevin’s kids:
I know I probably won’t be picked but I thought I would recommend a series for you to read. It’s call Artimis Fowl by Eoin Colfer. It’s about a 12 year old super criminal that tries to steal gold from leprachans. There are five books in the series and I’m really anjoying them. If I do win I’ll write 25 interesting facts about Canada.
Thanks for listening.
Andrew
Do I feel lucky? Not really, but who knows.
My 7 year old daughter has already watched HSM2 4 times. Daddy (me) video taped it. Oh, yes, I’m interested in that Slingbox, too!
Chickens make me angry, all that clucking, all the feathers, grrrrrrrrrr
This would be awesome… would be great for college!
Oh yes, I would love one!
Pick me!
Please pick me….I’ll be your best friend!
I’m sure my 3 teenagers at home would love it!
slingbox me please.
woo woo houston!
I’ll make a deal with ya. If you pick me, I’ll take your Slingbox.
I’ll give you candy.
Would love to take it off you.
I’m hearing impaired and would love to get the Slingbox so I can figure out how to set up streaming with closed captioning. The vast majority of stuff out there does not play well at all with subtitles or Closed Captioning…others require a lot of tinkering or workarounds. The gift of the Slingbox would at least save the purchase cost if accessibility attempts prove unfruitful.
I am sure my mom, dad and dog would love it!
Oooh pick me! Pick me!
My kids will surely be awed by the power of the slingbox.
FTW!!!111one11!
PICK ME! PICK ME! I LIVE CLOSE SO SHIPPING WILL BE CHEAP! YAY!
I’d really like to play with one of these.
If you pick me, I can let my kids watch their favorite shows while we are away from home and introduce them to technology!
Steve
sling me your sling bok
Today’s the day,
I can’t believe it’s here!
The moment I’ve been waiting for
all week, all month, all year!
I’ve thought about it constantly.
It’s been my wildest dream.
I hardly can contain myself.
I feel like I could scream.
The time is now upon us,
so make way for Charlie Ray!
Because today is Sling BOX Day!
foshizzle my nizzle, that slingboxizzle would sizzle in the livingroom of my hizzle!:)
Only the coolest kids in the world would give me a sling box.
I’m feeling lucky!
Although I’d probably play around with it a bit, I might end up giving the Slingbox to my brother. So perhaps my “generosity” would sway the vote?
I NEED a slingbox. I am the last to get to watch any tv in my house and usually have to record my favorite shows when they come on late at night. So, while I’m waiting for the TV to free up, I have to stare at JKOTR waiting for new and exciting topics to be posted to allay my lack of communication with the multimedia universe. What more could I ask for but to be able to watch my favorite shows on my Gateway CX2620 tablet! I see the light at the end of the tunnel and its finally not attached to a runaway freight train!
David
place shift that Slingbox to me
