It works on a few channels but it's not consistant

SPB TV works well for me, all channels work, the only catch is the channels are really odd ones!!! some of the stand up comedy ones are OK but the most redeeming bit are the Miami TV ones in which the female presenters often seem to be scantily clad for no discernible reason.. not complaining mind.

I took it in jest... the irony of being told I am geek by someone who is also on a mobile phone forum at 11pm on a Saturday night... :rotfl:

Potentially a great app if it works for you. Sadly last time I tried it on my phone (G300 on ICS) it wouldn't show any video, just audio

That's a shame.
I've never actually had a problem with it on any of the channels.
For what it's worth I'm running Gingerbread (I know, I know - really should update it) on a Samsung Galaxy S

Jottacloud cloud storage / backup, its pretty new, but seems good from the time ive used it, better than box and dropbox, uploads seem a lot faster, no upload file size limits, auto backup and syncing of lots of things, sms, contacts, photos, music etc

you get 5gb when signing up, if you do a sync with the app you get an extra 10gb, if you sign up via a referral and do a sync you get a total of 20gb

you end up with 20gb, and I get an extra 5gb

My App Recommendation would be 3g Watchdog.

You can set your data allowance and it has a handy little widget to show you how much you've used, it will alert you automatically when you reach a set % and if your super cautious it will even shut off mobile data to stop you going over your allowance.

Here's it on my phone, the widget in the middle.
