At this time, the only vendors selling the Slingbox are CompUSA and Best Buy. According to Sling, each is now taking web orders for the Slingbox. I believe both vendors are able to ship to Canada, which is a heck of a lot easier than driving to Buffalo.

As far as your friends in LA goes, just tell them to be patient. I'm sure either Best Buy or Comp USA will be getting stock again in the near future.

The Slingbox store on Sling Media's site is open. You can also purchase one on Amazon.

This is Brian from Sling Media. We are currently selling the Slingbox through Best Buy, CompUSA, Amazon.com, Walmart.com and Target.com in addition to our own online store.

To my knowledge none of these outlet will ship the product to Canada at this time. We are working to open distribution in Canada, however, and I think we will succeed within the next month or so.

Stay tuned to our site for more details as we'll make the announcement there!

One quick clarification- we'll probably have our Canadian distribution plan worked out within a month, but it may take some time beyond that before units are actually available in stores.

Best,
Jeremy

Just wondering if there's a status update on distribution to the Canadian market. Looks like someone was able to get it from tigerdirect.ca in November, but I don't see them offering it any more.

I had no Idea this product existed until I ventured to my local Tigerdirect.ca CANADA. I read the box and I was impressed. Little did I know that by waiting a few days to make my decision the three boxes in the store were gone!!!. Now that I have investigated more it turns out that it is nowhere to be seen, So YES I saw it in Canada; an puff is gone and it can't be found

Saw a bunch of them at a Futureshop on Sunday. Thap probably means you'll find them at the Best Buy as well.

 Good luck.
