That sweet little update to SlingPlayer Mobile for iPhone that Sling submitted for Apple’s perusal about a week and a half ago is now approved and available — version 1.1, as it were — bringing native DISH Network navigation, improved widescreen support, and improved response times throughout the app. Separately, Sling has updated us on the 3G-compatible flavor of the app that they’ve submitted for consideration outside of the US, but so far, no dice — the company hasn’t heard back from Apple, which means it’s all WiFi-only for the moment. Wouldn’t want to saturate those pricey little 3G cells, now, would we?
