Watch That Tiny $74 1.5GHz Android-Powered Thumb-Puter In Action We’re all about the iView love here at Giz, but sometimes you just want something more than ABC programming on demand. Something like Hulu. But if you’ve ever tried to access the video on demand service, you’ve probably gotten a big fat rejection notice on your screen based on where you live. Gus over at Lifehacker’s put together a really good piece on why you can’t access all that free US TV programming, as well as ways that you can’t work around it. Definitely worth a read.
The British Broadcasting Corporation, television purveyor of such fine programs as Top Gear and Planet Earth, is said to be in talks with Google to bring their excellent VOD service to America.
We’re big fans of Boxee, the slick cross-platform media centre, so it’s great to see that they’re still adding features. Not only that, but it’s now easier than ever to snag a download.
For those living in the UK, the BBC iPlayer is a pretty fantastic VOD service with one drawback: you have to watch shows in-browser. Now one philanthropist coder has written a Vista Media Centre interface for the iPlayer. So you can view BBC content on your TV without the PS3 and Wii workarounds, or, at the very least, break free of your browser’s annoying viewing restrictions. It’s a free download, so all you Doctor Who fanatics should have plenty of cash left over for living-room-destroying merchandise. [Milliesoft via eHomeUpgrade]
The BBC plans to bring the popular iPlayer to the iPhone and iPod touch. That is fantastic news, as it means you will soon be able to stream great shows such as Top Gear and The Office to your iPod or iPhone. Better still, the added functionality is supposedly coming “within weeks.”
