If you have a tv tuner card you can use windows media encoder to broadcast live tv for your axim.

Agree with deadlyvirus.

Orb.com's MyCast is the only good and free solution. Get yourself a compatible TV tuner and if you can use dial-up networking using your cellphone and PDA through your wireless provider--than it's mobile cable programming where ever you go. Otherwise, it's mobile TV within your home network or Hotspots.

wel i use orb also .. it kills my battery .. i use orb in my work.. they have wifi ............since when u use orb .........u get all streaming connecting through internet that means u are downloading stuff every second ... to catch the video .. in this case it drains the battery faster........
its alot better for ur batter if u just have the video file in ur memory card.. i know i know u cant fit all movies in ur little memory card .. but thats how orb works ..
kills the battery faster.. but u can watch movies through orb i must say :-)

Kenkefwan, your a bit of topic :P its about streaming live tv, not watching videos from your cf card :)

perhaps, if you would use a bluetooth connection to acces internet, battery drainaige might feel more pleasant to you.

I use the Eops CF tv tuner card . You can pick-up local over the air tv channels with it. If the channel has a strong signal the picture is really pretty good! It drains the battery pretty fast though. Should have external power or battery available.
