Euro 2008 live on iPhone?

Is it possible to watch any Euro 2008 games live with an iPhone?

I'm guessing wifi is the best option for streaming, but do we have any apps that allows torrent streaming or does anyone know of any sites offering subscriptions to watch games live that will run on iPhones (ie not flash based)?

One word... Slingbox!

well, EPSN 360 is another option. I also use Orb, which is free but you need a tuner card in your PC

Slingbox doesn't work with iPhone just yet. They are working on it, so we'll see how that goes.

But Orb seems to be great. I just finished setting it up, but I forgot to setup my program guide, and it's causing errors from my iPhone. I'll have to wait till I get home to fix the program guide and hopefully Orb will be running on my iPhone; looks promising.

Haven't tried ESPN 360 just yet, will give it a go when I get to a wifi zone. But i'm guessing ESPN 360 will not be broadcasting live games?

I wish the iPhone had MediaFLO capability.

Well I looked into Orb, and it works beautifully.

I am now streaming live tv to my iPhone and watching all the Euro games. If anyone has an iPhone, you should really look into this program; it lets you stream anything from your PC (photos, music, videos, and live tv if you have it hooked up). You can also watch a lot of internet TV, which I haven't tried yet, but looks promising.

So basically if anyone wants to watch Live TV on their iPhone:

install Orb on home PC (must have TV on the PC)
install Orb on iPhone
adjust some settings
start watching

If you are in the US, there are less settings to adjust, but if you are in Canada, there was a lot of manual settings I had to adjust. So PM me if anyone needs help, although the Orb forums are really helpful.
