We got a hint of Sling's desire to let users catch their video streams directly on TV without a box during CES 2010, and now there's video of the company showing off its SlingPlayer for Connected Devices app on Google TV. We caught a a preview at CES earlier this year, but interested Slingbox owners (SOLO and PRO-HD boxes only, just like the mobile apps) can sign up for the upcoming beta at the link below. The most interesting development however is that it appears to be a web app, likely running on Flash. That means Sling won't have to wait for the Android Market to open up on Google TV to roll this out, and it could allow for easy porting to other embedded TV platforms with a browser that supports Flash like Samsung's Smart Hub. Also not lost in the moment is the ability for the Google TV to show some potential, since it desperately needs for the list of things it actually can do to garner more attention than the list of things it's blocked from doing.
