The reason I didn't want updates was the hideous practise of updating games to reflect seasonal activities........christmas, halloween..
Bah Humbug !

Well, I don't own a Sligbox, and after reading this I won't ever own one.

I agree this kind of thing should be made illegal. Planned obsolescence has been illegal in the US for several decades, but software has not been regulated in the same way. They can just claim that the App is a free gift to people who use the latest version of their product, and you get screwed.

Can you "jailbreak" the Slingbox and make it appear to be a later model?

Make sure you write an appropriate review and give the rating in the AppStore that Slingbox deserves

Really???

Can you site the specific law that says this? Is there a law that says that every manufacturer is required to support every product they have ever made into perpetuity?

I trying to find how to stop getting update notification but look like that is not possible. I hate to see massage that something is still now updated and I have very slow net connection to update now. So it will be great if you can for example stop or disable update for some period of time. Let say week,month etc... Later when you switch on new updates will show up. End of story. On that way you can stop having icons during slow net time or when using 3G
What you guys think about that.
