Is not Direct TV for free nor All cable channels but they come in good . especially now for Football Season.
Most of the Time i am stuck at work (Sprint) and i cant make it home on time to watch my NFL games or even this past week the yankee Game. =]
Well no i use this website i found at phonearena and i didnt think it was going to work but it really does. and its Great

All you have to do is go to http://http://vuivision.com/

and enter an email.( havent received any spam) and Thats it.. You get CBS, FOX, NBC, ABC.. ( there is a 16 second Delay) but it works)

SO IF you are bored at work and want to watch some tv and you cant well here is an option.

P.S my battery was still standing after watching a whole Steelers vs Vikings Game,

You sir are a Hero for my Hero! Works great and will be awesome for College Football this weekend when I am not able to be at home. +1 Rep for you!

Note to all, you don't have to put in a real email address. There is no email verification, at least at the time of this post.

Audio is a tad off from the video, but if your wanting to watch a football game should be fine or if your bored and want to watch TV at work or catch the news, you should be fine.

Wow this is great! I drive truck (should be starting my first day tomorrow) for a produce company in Seattle and believe that my route will require 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the afternoon of riding the Seattle ferries from Seattle to Bainbridge and Bremerton. This looks like it may be my life saver from the 2 hours a day of riding a ferry in a truck (emm... that last part didn't sound right).

oh wow! Added to bookmarks. Thanks :) I hope PBS comes up, my kids would love it. All i need now is an HTC Mini USB to Video output adapter cable to plug it into a TV and stream the channels.

Ok, ok I know its ONLY a phone....but.... ;-)


Thanks for sharing original poster, this looks good, besides all the commercials! :)

Regarding the video output adaptor though... I purchased this last week off of Amazon.com and am returning it this week. It did absolutely nothing in my Sprint Hero. Phone never even acknowledged it was plugged in or anything.
Anyone else have any luck with this??

How it works ????

Q. What is Vuivision?
A. VuiVision, a service offered by Hang 10 Technologies, is a NRT (Nearly Real Time), DVR service that allows clients, who already have access to television content, a great way to stream that content to their phones and mobile devices.
Q. How do I see live TV on my cell phone?
A. Simply go to VuiVision.com and enter your email. A list of links will appear and you can choose which channel you would like to watch.
Q. Why isn't it working?
A. You must have a video enabled phone. To check if your phone is video enabled go to m.youtube.com and try playing a video. If the Youtube video plays then your phone is video enabled. You may also check your phones capabilities at Mobile Website Redirection | Mobile Analytics | Device Properties | Handset Detection. At the bottom of that website you may see a full list of phone. Click that link and look for your cell phone model.
Q. If I still can't get it working what can I do?
A. You can always fill out the "contact us" link found on the main VuiVision.com site. We will assist you in troubleshooting our video delivery system.
Q. How much will this cost me?
A. If you have an unlimited data plan, nothing. If you don't, a lot. This service is for cell phone owners that have an unlimited data plan from their providers. Most Blackberry service plans include an unlimited data plan.

Best part ...

NOT IPHONE COMPATIBLE !!!!!

Free app on the market called tv.com, it's not real time but it's got a decent amount of full episodes from various channels, cbs, cw, et, some more I can't remember, pretty good quality, and works pretty good on the Hero.

So apparently this the hulu.com app/site for the other major network(s)? Thanks for posting this.

And...they have MacGyver.
