Fantastic App! My sons in Thailand will love this.

Apple tv costs about £100 so it could be worth the investment for those who want to hook it up to the TV. I wonder if I can get it to do the same with my Sony Netbox as I have a server set up. Not sure though. Must try it when I have a few spare minutes. Depending on what footy you can get on CL nights etc I might just invest in and Apple TV Box as well - but don't tell the missus!

Works great on 3g as well! Just been watching it at work (it will use a lot of your free allowance though so be very careful on 3g)

Anybody know how to get an iPod touch to use a Turkcell dongle for wi-fi connection? The dongle is how we connect the laptop in Turkey but the dongle doesn't broadcast it's network name. Didn't have an iPod when we were last there, so don't know if this will connect to the dongle automatically. Thanks, John

I'm pretty sure you can't connect an iphone/ipod touch to an internet service provided via USB dongle.

Brilliant! thanks for that, it makes you think what more is available that people don't know about.

Thanks Scunner. That fits with what happens with a Kindle. That doessn't work with the dongle, either. As the late Robert Robinson would say " Ah, would that it did".

My son has it up and running in Thailand! He has his tv hooked up to his laptop via a cable and it works perfect. He's also paid $14 for the first month ( I guess to watch premium channels but I will find out).

He just told me he went out and recorded MOTD - evidently you can just press and it will record any channel for you.

Might just gamble with an apple tv box if some of the foreign channels show footy.
