    I ask this as I'm watching the US Open on my work computer. If anyone could watch live coverage of the US Open, on say, their iPhone, could they?

    Plenty of phones have mobile TV now. Just switched over to ATT and they have some sort of it, but I don't pay the $10 a month for it. I know Sprint has the TV thing too.

    I'm guessing since the US Open is on a major network you'd probably get it on a phone if you had one that is capable.

    Orbb or Slingbox if you run a feed from home.

    Skyfire browser plays flash, so you can run a stream from the site. Eats and heats up the battery like none other. Probably drain it even if you were charging it from the work computer.

    There is a free TVU app for the iphone. I was able to watch a few Rockets games on there, but YMMV.

    I would love to have the option to watch the Rockets on my phone via NBA's league pass broadband service.
