Sky Mobile TV News and Sports for iPhone Launches in UK App Store
Sky Mobile TV News and Sports [Free + £6 a month subscription - iTunes link] for iPhone and iPod touch is now available in the UK App Store, and is Wi-Fi only at the moment (so AT&T isn’t the only one unhappy with TV over 3G, eh?)
The app itself is free, though the programming will set you back £6 a month — unless you’re an O2 customer, in which case they’ll foot the bill for your first three months. Nothing like a competitive market, is there?
If you live in the UK and want all the news, football (soccer to you North Americans), golf, and cricket you can shake an iPhone at, and you check out the app, let us know what you think.
If you live in the US, how would the idea of CNN/ESPN or FoxNews/Sports apps grab you?

This app is very impressive. Love it! Over 3G would be nice, but Wifi will do for now. The video quality is excellent. Hoping they expand on this and make the sky player app. That would rock, hard
This works fine on 3g with a jailbroken iphone using a app called 3g unrestricter the quality is the same,amazing
It’s working well for me and the 3 months free bonus from O2 is great. I’m not totally sure but I think it works out cheaper than adding Sky Sports to my tv subscription. If they can get it to work over 3G it’ll be one of my killer apps.
UK only? No love for the expats across the pond?
Xmas comes early this year. O2 is unlocking my iPhone for free, gives me 3 months Sky Sports for free and I just got a chocolate bar from them – just because… Competition, bring it on (if the rates don’t change at least these will cheer me up). If they expand their 3G network, I’ll think twice switching to Voda when they get the iPhone in Jan.:).
Is it possible to stream this straight from an iphone 3G onto your tv through the av adapter?
Great over jailbroken phone on 3g. Great quality. Also try iPhone.catchuptv.com for live tv over 3g in the uk.
Sorry; http://iphone.tvcatchup.com
can I use it outside the UK?
Is there anyway for an American to secure this app?!
I WANT IT SOOOO BAD!! I’m willing to cough up the dough for it if only they’d let me!
This app is brilliant you get 7 premium sport channels including ESPN and the picture quality is almost HD in nature. Had no problems at all with the stream…just waiting for the app which will let me use it on 3G.
Howdy thats a very interesting view, It does give one food for thought, I am very delighted I stumbled on your blog, i was using Stumbleupon at the time, in any case i dont want to drift on too much, but i would like to mention that I will be back when I have a little time to read your blog more thoroughly, Once again thanks a lot for the post and please do keep up the right work,
Great blog, although I think some of the stuff on itt is a little pre used lol.
Great post. Thanks for sharing
Thanks , I have just been looking for info approximately this subject for ages and yours is the greatest I’ve found out so far. However, what concerning the conclusion? Are you sure in regards to the supply?|What i do not realize is if truth be told how you are now not really a lot more neatly-appreciated than you might be right now. You’re very intelligent.
