Sure, it's not as revolutionary as the new automated ad skipping built into its DVRs, but Dish Network has also just revamped its Remote Access iPad app. While other pay-TV providers are proud about streaming channels to mobile devices only within the home or shifting a few recordings, Dish's tight Sling integration still provides the most video wherever the user might be, as well as DVR management, a full guide and remote control.

I just downloaded the update from iTunes and I am very impressed with the new interface and the speed at which the app operates. My favorite new feature has to be the ability to flip through the TV guide without stopping playback on the show I am watching. A coworker from Dish and I like to meet down at the park on Saturdays for a little chess. I bring my iPad along so we can watch the live Rockies game. Sometimes the Rockies aren’t doing so well so I end up looking for something else to watch before the game is over. My friend used to complain when I did that because he couldn’t see what was happening in the game. He can’t complain about that anymore.
