Yes I think it will ..... but there are videos on YouTube about what to change in the settings to cheat it into thinking it's in the UK.

Haven't tried it myself as I'm waiting for Telecom to swap my modem for a wireless one.

Various storage sizes means various prices. The iPad 3 comes out next week in the US so probably within 2 weeks of that here in Italy. Currently there are 6 versions: 16gb, 32gb and 64gb which work wi-fi only and the same sizes that work on 3G as well as wi-fi. It's rumoured that there will be a new 8gb version coming out next week and the iPad 2 will be reduced in price. I've got the 64gb 3G version and it's full of hi def movies, photos and games.

Satellite TV has a lot more channels, 100s in fact. Mostly British based content as well.

Really simple if you use either the HDMI adaptor for mirroring or the AV component cables to stream video.

I have a mighty erection.

I've not tried it but I presume you still need a UK VPN or proxy but please let us know. My Xbox 360 has 4oD and LoveFilm which I have yet to try if they work here in Italy.

I just consulted You Tube! And all you need is a HDMI cable, an Apple digital AV adaptor and a 10 year old boy on You Tube will show you step by step how to hook up iPad to' watch on your telly.......simple!

Just asked son. He said, 'of course you can'. All you need to do is download Opera. Costs €5.' Surely it can't be that simple??? I'll kill him is it is!

I am getting really confused now. Have I got to get an Ipad or a WII? Son has an XBox - can we do anything with that?

When you guys and girls have got this sorted out and up and running, drop me a line with step by step instructions. Tia

I've also got some old biscuit tins and bits of string ... Any good?

duffer

I got the lot plus chicken wings but nothing beats my favourite pastime!

MarkRD

Didn't know you were a stamp collector Duffer. Any swaps?

duffer

I suggest you go with Sky TV and the dish. What's happened in the past is that these online apps will start asking for money or limit your speed/quality and in the end they just get shutdown for copyright infringement. So if you have the means, enjoy it whilst it lasts but I wouldn't go to any extra expense for a streaming site.

duffer

I don't mind swapping!

MarkRD

I asked for that.

duffer

I'm sure you can watch the iPlayer on the Wii but I think you still need a UK VPN or a proxy so I presume this is one of them. Does he mean the Opera browser?

duffer

So you don't want to swap now?

You just want to watch...
