Free TV Listings

01-19-09, 02:13 AM

I am amazed that none of the sites (yahoo, microsoft etc) have easy tv listings for the pocket PC. I searched for a program that would do it but they all cost something. Anyone find one or a website that I can see for listings? Yahoo, and other places for listings almost crash Opera.

Give TV Guide Mobile a try.

No longer free but the old PTVL is still available at Schedules Direct

That's what I use. I figure for $20 a year ($1.67 a month), it's not a bad deal. Of course I liked it better when it was free.

REALLY!? I downloaded and tried it and nothing would display correctly. All the buttons were cut off and half the info that should have been shown, was off the page. I uninstalled it immediately after trying it.

I don't have any of those issues. The version I have is 2.0.24. Maybe you should check it out again?

That's the same version I have. Here is a screen cap of what I am getting.

I was finally able to get my info input and it is a nice application (thanks for posting that breley- I had never seen it). The only downside for me is the fact you have to be connected to the internet to use it. I was hoping I could download the listings and view them when not connected. Oh well, I'll continue to use PTVL for now. I have 8 months or so left on my subscription.
