    Ive had android on my HTC HD2 for awhile now.

    Prior to having an android device I used an iPod touch, and found the Skynews app useful, especially for watching it live etc.

    I know the official app is on Android, but I can't seem to find it on the Market.

    So I was wondering if anyone know firstly why I can't find it on the Market? and is there anywhere I can get the app from?

    Thanks in advanced

    I think it's geo-restricted to the UK.

    Google Sky News apk and you should find it handy enough.

    Sure i'll keep looking around.

    I was in the UK over the weekend and searched again on the market (with English ip) but it still didn't find it.

    Can it be watched live or am I missing something obvious?

    No can't watch it live. It's only in text.

    Yeah, thats the only downside.

    Im surprised you can't, I guess they just put more effort into the iOS version
