i found something out.. if u are on rogers.. and u choose the rogers player.. they charge u 5$ per month.. so just go to the second link and download the OTA2 for other Carriers.. and they just charge for Data which is normal.. since i have a Rogers Data Demo Line.. then it works perfectly fine.. but i wonder if the rogers edition of the program has more clips

i just tried to download a 37sec clip ... took a long time.. too bad it cant live stream .. it has to download and then play ans their servers are really slow..

I am on Cingular and I was able to download the 37 sec clip and play it.

Was kind of cool. The download took awhile, glad I started off with the smaller clip.

I will download the larger one later.

Quality wasn't all that great, but hey, video on my bb is sooo cool.

Maybe other carriers/news stations will adopt this soon, I would love to see local news clips. It's a beginning.

When you're browsing the clips, click the wheel and select Archived Clips - there's another 5 clips there.

Neat for the Gee Whiz factor, but found it a bit choppy on my 8700 (which I assume is the best platform available for this!). It will be short lived on my BB unless there's more interesting content.

Has anyone figured out what file format / codec it's using and/or if you could play a video from within the standard browser?

Just a wild a** guess but I suspect this app could be a real battery drainer.

I was told by a rogers rep that the $5 a month gives you unlimted use of the BBTV and does not count towards your data allowence each month.

No one says you have to watch video allllll the time...

The codec/compression/software must be pretty poor. I'm able to stream low-res video when I'm tethered...

That's true. Many of us at the office had the $5 option added to our accounts today.

The novelty will wear off soon, once your friends are like...I wanna see that clip! And you say...okay, just wait 10 minutes while I download it.

The battery drain isn't too bad, but memory leak is awful!
