AT&T will limit iPhone SlingPlayer to save network capacity?
Today we get a not good news about iPhone SlingPlayer fans.We all know that AT&T defended its decision to cripple limit the iPhone SlingPlayer application with claims like “it would use large amounts of wireless network capacity” and “could create congestion and potentially prevent other customers from using the network”. A Gizmodo tipster claims however, that these publicly proclaimed reasons are only half of the story and a more nefarious reason for a WiFi-only SlingPlayer exists.
According to the tipster, AT&T is hard at work with a version of its own Slingplayer-like software, codenamed i-Verse. The i-Verse mobile application will reportedly interact with AT&’s U-Verse television service and allow U-Verse subscribers to stream recorded video from their DVRs to their mobile phones. The i-Verse application was supposedly well-received when demoed last year and AT&T has been working overtime to get it up and running.
We can understand that AT&T did and what it will take care,but is it a right thing to limit SlingPlayer app for the iPhone and at meanwhile to enhance its own app? What’s your opinion,Iphone SlingPlayer?
