Sling Media's beta of the US version of SlingPlayer for Symbian S60 is in full swing, and will someday soon bring Sling goodness to owners of 3G capable Symbian S60 devices such as the Nokia N75.

According to Sling Media's Dave Zatz, "The beta is progressing smoothly. It won't be long now."

This is good news to anyone jealous of our European friends; they've been able to Sling from Symbian devices for a while now, thanks to an exclusive partnership with Three, one of the major cellular providers overseas.

Dave was also kind enough to send over some pics of a Nokia N75 running the SlingPlayer beta software:

We have liftoff! And what could be better than the Daily Show (other than Colbert)?

Looks like all the staples are present, including the favorites bar.

What's this? A full screen mode! I wonder if this will make its way to the UK version?

Get ready folks: TV goodness is coming to a Symbian near you very, very soon. Stay tuned to SlingCommunity for more information as it becomes available.

Does the SlingPlayer for Symbian S60 Beta look to be shaping up as good as you expected?
