I've heard about this, but don't really know anything about it. What is Slingbox? What does one use it for? Is it a physical product, software, or a combination? Is it something like MythTV? Or Democracy Player?

Here is a concise definition

Basically---I can view and control my Cable/Satellite/DVR from my computer on my home network or when I am traveling.
