Remember back on the 27th I pointed to an article that suggested Slingbox would not have BlackBerry support anytime soon? This was based on comments made at CES.I just came across a post on Pinstack that might suggest that Slingbox is interested in BlackBerry support.
N8DBB was checking out what jobs Slingbox had open on their website. Sadly there was no posting for RIM developer, but something to make BlackBerry owners who have a Slingbox get interested.
Dated January 12th and under the title of Senior Quality Assurance Engineer there is a rather large description of what Slingbox wants.
The interesting part is under Job Specifications/Requirements. It says testing and managing mobile device lab (Windows Mobile, S60, Palm OS, JavaME (J2ME), RIM, BREW) is a plus.
RIM makes the list, which means they are at least thinking about giving BlackBerrys some love.
What do you think?
1. that would be so cool. I am about to buy a wifi system for my car but would prefer to simply use my blackberry pearl. I wonder if t-mobile will be good enough since it is not 3g. Ah what the hell I might as well put wifi in my car.
