    I just got an email that says Streaming TV is available, but when I searched for shows by Streaming Available, none showed up. Any idea when or how shows will be abailable for streaming?

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't there only a few tv shows that are streamed right now?

    Well, I'm not quite sure. I haven't used iTV (I only watch a few TV shows like Mythbusters, The Office and The Simpsons) since before the update. I'm sure more TV shows will be available for streaming soon though. The update just came out, so just be patient :)

    The ability to watch TV shows on an iphone alone is a great accomplishment. The devs should be proud of themselves.

    Yeah... I want to know what shows have episodes available to stream too. I see Mythbusters only has clips and such, no full episodes yet.

    Directly from the App Store on the i.TV page.

    I guess there are only a few channels with episodes/clips right now. They say they are adding more, so I don't think you'll have to wait long before you start seeing lots of channels with video streaming.

    Mythbusters is such a great show. I'm glad they added the clips because there are some hilarious ones that you could probably watch (for example the clip "Tase Me Bro!" is insanely funny).

    Would also be nice if you could transfer recordings from your Tivo DVR to iphone via wifi.

    Or just get a PC card and the Orb live native app, I have had streaming full basic cable (73 channels live) since November. It really only works well over wi-fi, but I can sit at work and watch live NFL or NBA anytime it's on. Plus you can watch all your other media as well. i.e. movies/music/pictures/webcams

    I paid $30 for mine... Works like a charm... The ones orb recommends are a bit more though.
