Things must be looking up for the people at Slingbox, with their announcement at CES of the Slingcatcher, allowing content to be transmited on a Slingbox-connected TV to another TV set, either to one in the same house via a home network or to one in a remote location via the Internet.

According to Forbes, SlingCatcher will be available in mid-2007 for less than $200.

Users with a home Internet network will be able to highlight an online video on their computer screen and “sling” it to a TV outfitted with a SlingCatcher. The device will format Internet video feed so that it looks sharper than the poor resolution that would usually result from connecting a TV to a computer.

SlingCatcher will also be able to deliver other multimedia content to a TV, including digital photos, slide shows and music.
