Are you referring to the website that's formatted for windows mobile (m.cnbc.com)

or the iphone app that's designed to work on window's mobile?

Maybe a link will help.

Real Time Stock Quotes from Mobile CNBC

Need to check on the stock prices on the go? Want to get real time quotes (not 15-min delayed)? Now you can get NYSE and NASDAQ stock prices on CNBC Mobile Site (http://mobile.cnbc.com). While I've been waiting for the big discount firms to release applications allowing me to stream real time stock prices as well as carry out some basic transactions on the fly, this is the closest to real time quote for a mobile site as I can find. Prior to this, I had to use iPhone Safari to log in to a brokerage account in full version. Glad to see folks at CNBC stepping up.

That doesn't provide stock list where all the stocks are updated every so many seconds. That's what I'm trying to do.

I found a real time stock app for the HTC Touch Pro2 (and other smartphones) which requires a monthly subscription. The makers do offer a 60 day free trial.

The more I use it the more I'm finding things about it I like. The columns are user definable as well as width adjustable. Be sure to set the font size in your TP2 to the largest available.

Here's a link to get you started. http://www.bluesystems.info/products.aspx

I think you won't find one as you have to pay the exchanges for their data feed or subcontract it through an authorized data vendor.

Now, I don't know how the NYSE does their licensing (we don't distribute their real time data) but it will either be a flat license fee, a per user fee for real time/delayed quotes or a combination of the 2. There may also be a differentiation between snapshot data and streamed data as far as exchange fees go (NYMEX for example allows free distribution of delayed data in snapshot form for licensed distributors but you have to pay per user if you stream it to the user).

I just don't see any vendor distributing data they pay for without getting their money back. They would either have to charge for that or load it up with Ads (with questionable return value on ad money).

Brokerage houses already make their money off of you so the fee to stream you data (or just provide snap shots) likely doesn't effect their bottom line.

However a third party developer would likely have to contract a data feed and then pay exchange fees for said feed based on the distribution model - thus requiring them to charge to recoup their money.

Just my 2 cents here as we deal with exchange data from several different exchanges and the licensing fees that go along with that data.

I think the company that I referred to in post 14 is capable of real time quotes from NYSE as they charge extra for each of the exchanges that charge for their streaming feed.

The real time quotes I'm getting from them during the free trial period comes from the Kansas City exchange which is only a penny or two off from the others.
