Sling Media continues their conquest of the globe with the Slingbox, this time Finland is the lucky winner. The Slingbox SOLO and Slingbox PRO are both now available from Verkkokauppa.com, which SlingCommunity reports is one of the largest electronics stores in Finland and the oldest web store in the country. The Slingbox SOLO is selling for €189.90 while the Slingbox PRO goes for €298.90, but that does include the HD Connect cable sold separately in the US. Those prices are inclusive of VAT.
“The tremendous success of the Slingbox Classic in Europe demonstrates that consumers have embraced the idea of placeshifting,†said Blake Krikorian, co-founder, chairman and CEO of Sling Media. “Sling Media is focused on designing products that will provide customers with top value and the best possible overall, out of the box experience. I feel great about the products we are bringing to the market here in Finland with today’s announcement.â€
