EyeTV vs TVCatchup

I’m very disappointed with the EyeTV app for iPhone. Installed it today and it is incapable of streaming live TV from my MacBook Pro to iPhone on the same wireless network without stuttering. Compare this with TVCatchup on the iPhone which succeeds in streaming live TV over the internet. EyeTV needs a ??100.00 receiver, ??40.00 Mac Software and ??2.99 iPhone App. TVCatchup is free – works through the iPhone’s Safari browser. http://iphone.tvcatchup.com – Time for Elegato to catchup I think.

Mmmmm – interesting

Shadow culture secretary Jeremy Hunt???s appeal for more Conservatives to be employed by BBC News could be about to be granted ??? except in reverse. Clarence Mitchell, the former BBC journalist turned spokesman for Kate and Gerry McCann, is planning to stand as a Tory MP in the next general election. Mitchell, who quit the corporation to head up the media monitoring unit at the government???s Central Office of Information, will face a selection board early next month. He already knows the party???s director of communications, Andy Coulson, rather well ??? from Coulson???s time as editor of the News of the World.
