you know this isn’ a bad deal for people out on the road. I spend time on the road working, and some t.v. on my phone would be great. if you don’t get it, then you don’t get alot of things then. Oh everybody knows the iphone isn’t that great of a phone by the way.

I just don’t get this…I mean, I do get it, but don’t think it’ll last. I’m speaking about having to pay a separate monthly fee just to watch tv on your phone. You know what, I pay $150 a month to Comcast so I can get tv at home, and I will not spend $20 more a month, just to get the tv onto my phone. Absolutely ridiculous. Got news for ya AT&T…everyone with an iPhone should be eagerly awaiting Slingbox’s software release that allows you to watch your tv from home on your mobile phone. Slingbox already has software that runs on my iMac, and has software that runs on some mobile phones already out there. Oh, and all you need to do is buy a Slingbox, which are about $200. No monthly fee, nothing. As long as you have an internet connection and a screen, you can watch your tv that\’s at home anywhere. Why is this way better? You can watch pre-recorded shows on your Tivo or DVR. Plus, I’m already paying for cable tv from Comcast, why should I have to pay again just to get it on a different screen. This is the same situation as recording cassette tapes, cds, .mp3s, etc. I pay for the media once, then should be able to watch/use/consume it how I chose, as long as I don’t in-turn profit from it or violate copyright laws.
