from what i have read on other posts, for sports, 550 is what seems to  be the bench mark for watching sports...i currently watch football at 390k.

You will probably have a tough time getting your full upload speed on a phone.  Sports could be a little hard to watch depending on what you're watching but you'll at least be able to keep up.

i have an att tilt. is there anyother internet cell service that would give me better results.

For best results, you want a device that offers you 3G service (for the GSM providers like T-Mobile or AT&T) or EVDO (preferably Rev A) for Verizon and Sprint.

And Edge phone from AT&T or T-Mobile will work but not all that well...

I have the HTC Tytn II which is the unbranded ATT Tilt. I use Slingplayer with my phone and it is awesome. What ROM are you running on the Tilt (just curious)? I view over WiFi and 3G ... HTH!

Oh yeah, you can try it free (Slingplayer Mobile) for 30 days. If it sucks, then don't buy it;) ... I love it.
