I don't think I've even been on channel 108 live yet most of my viewing is from that channel!

			Sky to let iPad owners watch Planner recordings 
	http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/4537...g-watching-appQuote: 
	
		| Sky is in the process of developing an app for the iPad that will let Sky+ users stream the saved shows and movies on their Sky box to their tablet. |  
 ---------- Post added at 15:28 ---------- Previous post was at 15:21 ----------
 
 
 For anyone not on the beta EPG trial here's a glimpse
 
Sky to update EPG in May, we go hands-on
 
	http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/4536...pg-may-previewQuote: 
	
		| Sky is set to roll-out a new and improved electronic programme guide (EPG) to customers from the end of May and Pocket-lint has already had a walkthrough of the new interface. 
 Shown to us behind close doors, the bad news is that we weren't able to take any photos of the new interface as Sky informed us that many of the final details of how it will look and work are still being put through their final testing stages.

			Watch planned recordings on to iPad sounds a good idea.  Any idea if it will work on iPhone as well?

But also hopefully this means that we are closer to planner access on the Sky+app.
