Very good sound quality, but have to dedicate the connection to an individual device. When near more than one paired device the headphones switch back and forth between them.
I would recommend this to a friend!

First attempt, I bought a unit too big to get up the stairs or fit in the elevator. This one is shallow enough to fit well at counter depth. Trade-off is interior capacity.

My installers didn't look at the instructions so left the vent blower positioned to exit the front of the unit rather than through the vent in the ceiling. Read the instructions.

I have a house in Japan and one in the US. Just bought this 2nd scale to track in the 2nd house. After Fitbit replaced my original 1st one due to a software glitch it has worked flawlessly since 2014. Not sure how the new one coming out could be better...

What's great about it: Clear HD Image
What's not so great: Hassle to get the settings and connections right
I bought this to replace an older Slingbox Solo so I get better quality while in Japan. The HD capability is very nice, and having the remote to utilize Blockbuster and other content on the home computer is good too. Down side is definitely the cost. It seems the 350 is a better buy for basic HD functionality. The instructions suggest connecting via both HDMI and Component to the device being controlled, but settings clearly select one or the other inputs. I also had to fiddle with my Blue-ray player to be able to see some content in HD, with sound, etc. If considering again, I would go with the 350.
This product has... Fast connection, Reliable connection

Does the box use home internet data when watching the slingbox from another location?

I live in Alaska, and we don't have unlimited internet like there is in the Lower 48 states. If my husband is out of town for work, in the lower 48, and accesses the slingbox, of course he will be using the internet in his location. However, during the time that he is watching our DVR, would our data usage at home, where the slingbox is connected, go up as well?
Yes. The Slingbox 500 "broadcasts" the DVR signal from your home, so you are using upload bandwidth.
