June 18, 200916 yr If you've got OS 3.0 and have updated your MLB AtBat app, starting today you will get live streams of games on your phone. Looks like they're starting with just select games (today is the first day of the service), but the Sox-Cubs game today will be streaming. I could be reading this all wrong, but I can't think of any other way to take "streaming video with OS 3.0 starts today" including an mlb.tv link on the game page that wasn't ever listed before. confirmed -- http://www.intomobile.com/2009/06/17/at-ba...-on-iphone.html Edited June 18, 200916 yr by mmmmmbeeer
June 18, 200916 yr Yep. Looks like I will be able to stream the game on my iphone. Wow. I'm not even a subscriber to the mlb tv packages. I have a feeling that att will not be able to keep up with the demand.

I have a feeling that att will not be able to keep up with the demand. Yeah man, super cheap, albeit on a smaller screen. Isn't the audio package itself, on the computer, like $15 yet the AtBat app with audio and now video is just $10. I'm anxious to see how smooth the stream will be.
June 18, 200916 yr QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Jun 18, 2009 -> 09:33 AM) unfortunately blackout restrictions still apply, blah aaaaaaaaaaaaand its useless.
June 18, 200916 yr I've been meaning to get this for my iPhone. How is the quality for radio broadcasts? It's wondeful the iPhone is great for so many things, unfortuanately talking is not one of them. So just so I'm on the same page, this is the 9.99 MLB app which will give you radio feed for any game, MLB at bat and certain video feeds of games? That's a helluva deal if so. I got the CBS NCAA app during March Madness and it's been my favorite app ever thus far, getting to watch live streams of tournament games from anywhere was pure bliss.

The radio feed has been pretty reliable when I've used it.
June 18, 200916 yr QUOTE (Brupin @ Jun 18, 2009 -> 10:05 AM) They need to add this to the Palm Pre...ASAP. Too bad the Pre has an OS nobody wants to develop for. xD HTML 5...lol. I don't like the blackout restrictions, at all. Seriously, what's the point then? BTW, did any of you have to pay another $9.99 to update? I already bought the app a while ago and I'm not on 3.0 yet (waiting for jailbreak). I'm on 2.2.1 and It says I have to pay $9.99 to get the new update. What's up with this?

June 18, 200916 yr Aren't there new iPhones coming out that are only $99? I might have to jump in the market at some point.

They will blackout Sox games to anyone in Illinois/Indiana, though.
June 19, 200916 yr Slingmobile is live Chicago Cable. So it doesnt matter where I live or am at. I've watched games in vietnam, as well as in chicago. If Chicago comcast, wgn, espn or any channel doesnt blackout the game, im getting it.

June 19, 200916 yr QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jun 18, 2009 -> 08:04 PM) iphone has sling I think it will only work through wifi tho on AT&T, inorder to use it over the AT&T network you need to do some hack that can be found online... On a side note... Any Pre owners out there? What do you think of it?

The first two generation iphones couldnt even send a MMS. The technology in the Iphone has been around for years in multiple phones, apple just did a fantastic job of marketing it for the everyday person.

I've been considering getting an unlocked one.

It's a brand new OS and plenty have already developed. The library will grow. You guys get so defensive if anything isn't the great iPhone. The Pre is the s***, and has many features the iPhone doesn't, and all the features it does. Edited June 19, 200916 yr by Steve9347
