No its about the same, but it also depends on the station, for example Fox News looks great. But its because they spend the big bucks to have that ultra HD feed. So It depends I think MobiTV is a slight better but not by anything too noticeable.

Does the Chaner have local Southern Cal channels, Like Fox, ABC etc. Does SPB TV which is now free work on my TP2 running MM FF?

SPBTV does work on MM FF. I have no idea about the Southern Cal channels. I did not find many channels that I would watch.

Here is the SPBTV free cab. just install on storage card or device, soft reset turn on your wifi and launch program. I suggest you turn on your wifi on your first launch for an easier and faster set up. After that you will be good to go. You can even set the picture quality. Tons of channels, its free and even if you don't like the channel line up Im sure at your most boring moment you can find something. Plus again its free!

Thanks for the thread and those contributing. Can someone answer me very directly two questions.

-What is the best quality and reliable access to the World Cup Games(other than sling box). I don't care about price.

-With sling box do you already have to have cable or does that come with it? Is is a one time fee or hardware?

thanks.

In my opinion MobiTV witch now provides ESPN Mobile TV(channel) is the best reliable access to the World Cup Games for mobile devices other than SlingBox. My only only other concern or recommendation is consider using wifi for signal quality reliability and or also keep in mind who your service provider is and consider their data capabilities.

Regarding SlingBox, you have to have cable yourself. You can go to SlingBox.com or you can go to your local BestBuy and purchase the Hardware. They have a standard SlingBox hardware model and an HD SlingBox hardware model. Its simple enough to install from what I have read, sort of like installing your cable; basically plug ans play with possible software setup. Finally you have to download the SlingBox app to your mobile device. I believe you can get it from SlingBox.com directly or from the WM app store.

If money is not the problem like you stated I would go with Sling. Its a one time fee for hardware (Around $150 to $250) , I believe, I would check @ SlingBox.com for sure. But from what every one I know has told me its the best. Especially if you have VerizonFios HD package and you get the HD SlingBox.

Edit: Ebay usually sells them also.

Otherwise I would try out the MobiTV app/cab I provided a few posts back for free, and if you not happy with the quality try it on WiFi or consider upgrading to the $9.99 package. You can just pay a one time fee and if you dont like it cancel it before the end of the month.

Improve,
Are you using this on Sprint? the reason I ask is it doesn't show ESPN under the sprint list of channels and refers you to "Sprint TV". When I installed the demo it pretty choppy even with wifi turned on. I've been cut off and have not been able to watch anything in its entirety, does this get better if you purchase it? Lastly, the access seems limited as well, agian does this change if you purchase it?

Do you mean MobiTV on a sprint Device? The pics posted on post #37 where on a Sprint TP2 using MobiTV. Here is a quick and easy explanation if thats what you mean. The cab I provided was pulled out of the HD2(Tmobile) when it came out. It was only intended to work on that device with a 30 day free trial.

After I pulled the cab I installed it on my Sprint TP2. After you install it asks you to upgrade, DONT!, that's its way of knowing if its an HD2, Just soft reset and try again. Its Free(ripped out of HD2) and not intended for other WM devices. It works fine in my opinion but from time to time the app will try to log you out or give you issues(Keep in mind its a free hack). However if you buy purchase the app its $9.99 a month and you have no issues. The only issue may be your carriers data strength. I bought it and will cancel it after the World Cup is over.

If your just a casual user or want to try the app out read some past posts regarding issues and try the free cab. If your serious about it and or mobile World Cup games check out the links and try it for a month.

And if your really serious I recommend SlingBox HD package on Verizon Fios above all.
