Almost Showtime

CES doesn't officially open until Tuesday morning, so crews are swarming over the Las Vegas Convention Center making last-minute setups. These guys are inflating the DISH Hopper kangaroo.

While the roo was getting gassed, DISH was announcing a new version of the Hopper that integrates Sling technology. Here's what DISH says that will allow:

• Watch live and recorded television anywhere on Internet-connected tablets, smartphones and PCs at no additional charge using the Hopper’s new built-in Sling capabilities and the new DISH Anywhere™ app.

• Move recorded television to an iPad for viewing without an Internet connection using the free Hopper Transfers™ app.

• Transform their TVs into a home media hub with new multi-player gaming apps and the ability to ‘fling’ photos, videos and music from a mobile device.
