Even if they're working with the iPhone SDK for an iPhone player, Apple has to "approve" them to be a developer to publish the app. Not only would such an app be a potential bandwidth-hog (as already mentioned), but it would potentially compete with Apple's own iTunes sales.

Does it really take a relationship to sling from AppleTV? You just need to plug the video outputs into the slingbox and figure out the remote-control codes. I control my aTV with a Logitech Harmony remote, but I doubt they have a relationship with apple for this.

because the current slingbox pro supports streaming from apple tv, so seems like the relationship is all ready there.

But I do hope I am wrong.
