$30 WiFi -only SlingPlayer iPhone app to be released within the next 24-hours

“Apple sometime in the next 24 hours will release Sling Media’s highly anticipated SlingPlayer application for the iPhone onto its App Store, but the software will arrive without 3G wireless support,” Slash Lane reports for AppleInsider .

“Sling Media submitted the application to the App Store nearly six weeks ago but it has thus far failed to see approval amid rumors that AT&T had asked Apple to deny the software in its original form because the carrier was concerned about the app’s potential to saturate its 3G network,” Lane reports.

“Those rumors appear to have been true. AppleInsider spoke to SlingMedia on Tuesday and confirmed that Apple will push the application onto the App Store sometime between 12:00 a.m. and 6:00 am eastern time tomorrow… The version Apple approved is WiFi-only,” Lane reports.
