Joey-
Sorry to hear your experience wasn't great. I actually just watched an NFL game from the Caribbean on my phone using the Slingbox Solo and the quality was great.
The reason for not going to HDMI has to do with HDCP, as it turns out this can cause issues with having it pass through in some cases

Regardless, the upload speed at the Slingbox location can affect the quality significantly, but Boston area internet shouldn't have this issue.
