Do I understand that you unplug the IR Eye on the converter, as well as the IR blaster hardware on your Slingbox, and plug in a direct-connect cable instead? I wonder if that will work with a Hava?

Edit: Ah, I see from closer inspection of your pic 6 that the IR Eye is not removable.

So is this going to work with the Hava. Would you plug in the ir blaster into the back and attach them to the ir "eye". I hope it does

Since I didn't win, I can't try this out. But going from the IR blaster output of the Hava to the IR Eye of the converter should most certainly work. What I was asking about was the direct-connect cable. This would take the place of the IR Blaster, and make the IR Eye on the converter superfluous.

I can't wait to get one of these. I just got my Slingbox and today when I went to go watch something our 14 y/o that is out of school was hogging the TV.

My plan is to have the Slingbox Pro-HD hooked to TV1 and TV2 outputs of my 722 and use the TV1 output when I can since i'm guessing the picture will be better since its an HD source.

Anyone online selling these units yet? I looked around at dishstore.net and didn't see it listed.
