How did you get the iPlayer app? Is that the BBC iPlayer? I've looked in iTunes and I can't seem to find it. I have a UK account and I couldn't find it there either.

There's no official app. Just go to the website and then when on the iplayer page save it to your home screen.

Sorry, of course the iPlayer is not full app, i have it on my media page with ABC and Hulu+ but its just a link back to their iPad compatible site.

Also i am using PureVPN with USA and UK connections set up and working like a charm.

My apps include
Pages
Numbers
Keynote
Racer HD
HD Snooker
HD Scrabble
Airplane HD (lander game)

Ah I see. It doesn't work outside the UK for me though Any workaround?

See my sig for Black VPN referral code if you are interested

its immediate

Art Studio is really good if you're into drawing

I like the bit on the website that says why you should use BlackVpn and then lists my IP adress and tells me I'm in Longford for some reason.

I certainly would hate for people to think I lived in Longford.

Anybody having a problem using both a US and a Uk account with BlackVpn?

My Us account works no problem but the Uk account won't logon at all. Just disconnects straight away.

Their support has been no help

you sure you have the server as .co.uk, i made that mistake couldnt understand what was wrong

You sure I can? On the iPad anyway

BlackVPN never sent me a confirmation email after I paid them. Load of sh1te :mad::mad:

If, like me, you watch a lot of TV, then iTV Shows HD is a must-have!

Don't seem to be able to set it to first broadcasts outside the US so only useful for downloaders. Shame, could have been good.

Yeah.. it'll pick up British / Irish productions without a problem for their first airing on British / Irish TV (e.g picked up 'The IT Crowd' and 'Sherlock' correctly).

But anything US-produced is using it's next airing in the States - maybe that'll be fixed in a future revision but I wouldn't say it's likely.

Productivity.

I have a fair few other things but these are the best I've found so far.

Probably been mentioned already but there is a great app called TVListings.co.uk, that shows TV schedule based on your region and also has Remote Record functionality if you are a Sky+ subscriber.

How do I download the abc player app and hulu+ app?

They don't seem to show up when I do a search in the app store.

You need to download them in the US App Store - sign up for a US account with a new e-mail address / ID by clicking a free app in the US store (this way, you won't require a US credit card).

Plants Vs Zombies isn't worth the money IMO. It's far too pricey for the experience you get with the game. It's the easiest tower defence I have ever played, I breezed through the whole adventure, story mode with no trouble at all. So little strategy is needed even on the later levels.

N.O.V.A. - Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance HD
Gameloft

http://ax.itunes.apple.com/ie/app/n-o-v-a-near-orbit-vanguard/id363875948?mt=8#ls=1

€0.79 FPS pretty good stuff, takes a bit of getting used to but some nice features.
