TV on the ipad - when it is going to be released?

Here are tweets I've gotten back from @FIOSTV over the last year about this app that was initially demoed by Verizon in August of 2010:
1/24/12 - will be limited channels - was just reviewing the final release candidate today
10/31/12 - I have it on my ipad if it helps.   (my reponse - when will it be out 1 month, 2 months ? to which he replied) most def
It's been 19 months since the first demoed the app and it apparently has been working for many months for internal users.   I know the holdup is probably something with content rights, but seriously how long can that take to work out?   Even if the app is released with very limited channels it's at least something to show the customers that it is here and Verizon is working on getting more channels to add.    I also don't understand why there is such an issue with the content providers for watching in your own home on your WIFI network only.   It's as if the ipad is an extra TV and it will only increase viewership without anyone losing money. 
Has anyone heard anything about the status of this?   It also drives me crazy that Verizon won't come out and provide an update on this even if they say it's 6 months away. 

It seems VZ would dearly like the channels themselves to "do the deed" eg; HBO/Go, etc.... EPIC FAIL, Verizon. Other providers already have implemented this, VZ's EMPTY PROMISES for almost 2 years leave a bad taste. Let's face it, VZ just won't (or can't) deliver on it's commitments.

  • Why did Apple omit the Panorama feature in Camera on the Ipad, when they did the IOS6 update?

    Why did Apple omit the Panorama feature in Camera on the Ipad, when they did the IOS 6 Update? They included this feature on the iPod touch (5th gen) so why not on the iPad?

    I was on vacation in a national park and saw people using their iPads as a video camera...one of them standing in the  middle of a 'river' (read really large stream) at the time.
    I'm going to also go with the supposition of it being a different camera and probably different video handling processor. The iPhone is quite far ahead of the iPad camera wise, so probably has better protocols in place to handle images, especially something as complex as the 'live photo stitch' of the panorama.
    many existing cameras take what the panorama was, a 'photo stitch' where mulitple side by side photos are stitched together into one large panorama. This just appears to do it 'live' instead of individual shots that need to be processed on a comptuer to make the panorama.

  • So I have an iPad with the smart cover, and it's usually supposed to turn on the iPad when u open it, but it's no doing that for me. Nor is it turning off without pressing the button. What is the meaning of this?

    So I have an iPad with the smart cover, and it's usually supposed to turn on and off the iPad when u open it and close it, but it's not turning on for me. Nor is it turning off without pressing the button. What is the meaning of this?what caused it to be this way? Is there someway that I could fix it?

    Wait a sec did this just start?
    You set up the smart cover function in settings (you did that, right?) so, if you did that and it's failed you make an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar now.

    This is a problem of overall design.  It is not a scripting issue.
    NET USE wil only delete the drive you tell it to delete.  You will need to know in advance which drive that is.  There is no magic in WIndows.  YOu must tel it everything.
    Bill suggests GPP which is very easy to use and very flexible.  It avoids learning how to write scripts and understand much of Windows.  Just set the values and they do allof this for you.  There are checkboxes for most issues.
    Most of us have not mapped drives since shortly after the release of Vista many years ago.  Save your self a lot of headaches and use the tools that were built to do this/

  • I have set hyperlinks within my ibook author document, they work perfectly until i export and view on the ipad, when only one or none work, (hyperlinks to website not working at all) what am i doing wrong?

    I have set hyperlinks within my ibook author document, they work perfectly until i export and view on the ipad, when only one or none work, (hyperlinks to website not working at all) what am i doing wrong?

    An external hyperlink should handoff to Safari and leave iBooks.
    If that's not happening, perhaps there is something misconfigured on your iPad? Have you manually confirmed those links work in Safari on your iPad?

    I have the first ipad and it won't recognize the charger and also the computer won't recognize the ipad when I plug it in to sync. Any ideas why?

    If your using the same cable for your wall charger as you are for your computer, than the problem is probably within the cable (if there isn't visible damage to the cable of coarse). The quockest solution would be to buy your self a new cable. There is probably nothing wrong with your wall adapter, so just the cable will do.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Can I use external speakers with the iPad when using Facetime?

    Can I use external speakers with the iPad when using Facetime?  How do I do that?

    They have to be either plugged in via headphone jack or the dock port at the bottom. If you can. I've used it on apple tv, but that's it. I don't know if the others work, but I don't see why not. Try plugging in speakers in the headphone jack. You will get an answer :)
