    Yes, it is £6 a month. You do not need to be a previous Sky customer. I don't have a Sky subscription and I just signed up for it. The channels I can see on the list are:

    Sky Sports 1
    Sky Sports 2
    Sky Sports 3
    Sky Sports Xtra
    Sky Sports News
    Sky News
    At The Races
    ESPN

    It only works over WiFi but it is pretty cool! To get the free 3 month subscription if you are an O2 customer, text "SKY" to 2020. But be quick, it's only for the first 150,000.

    They only have sky news and sports news so if you wanted to watch the sports channels on your phone that would be no good?

    I use ORB and stream everything I have at home to me anywhere I am.

    Now I have no excuse not to go out with the Missus!
    Shopping, relatives anywhere! I just sit there nodding whilst watching whatever I want
    Wifi is best but even over 3g I have had good performance on the iPhone.

    Much cheaper than a slingbox and if you already have Sky it's even better.
    I don't have Sky at home anymore, switched to Freesat but I setup our helpdesk PC with a TV tuner in one of my clients that has got Sky and now watch it for free over the T1 link....
