Live TV app for iPhone
equinux has announced an unspecified, impending release of Live TV for the iPhone. The app receives TV feeds from equinux's Tube software, placeshifted from a user's Mac via a wireless network. Users then choose a channel from their handheld, which launches an iPhone-optimized video feed. Paired with the app's launch will be a lower $100 price for its TubeStick hybrid tuner, which includes the necessary Tube software.
The Tube program tunes digital and analog broadcasts, provides an electronic program guide, and both timeshifts and placeshifts programming. Placeshifting options make use of iChat. Live TV will require Tube 2.9.2, and be free to download from the iTunes App Store. The TubeStick is already on sale at retail.

slingbox, where art thou?
I really want to see the slingbox on the iPhone, maybe this means Apple is becoming more accepting of these types of applications.
