After first publicly demonstrating SlingPlayer Mobile for Blackberry at CES in January 2008, Sling is finally ready to unleash a public beta. According to their web site you’ll be able to sign up for the test starting December 30, 2008. Supported BlackBerry models include: Bold, 8820, Curve, Pearl, Pearl Flip (8220). The beta site notes that, with the exception of the BlackBerry Bold which has 3G data, all other models are only supported via Wi-Fi connection. Interesting that the BlackBerry Storm isn’t on the compatible device list.
