Hi,

been in contact with bbc about this I am guessing sony/bbc will not sort this out until android 4 comes to the tablet and if it does not come then maybe we will regret buying it.my wifes mobile phone has a brilliant iplayer app which makes the tablet look very thumbs down.

sony replied sending me a link for the bbc iplayer on the android market although i told them there isnt one for the sony tablet LOL shocking did you not read what i sent in on the email!!!

but they did include this handy link but otherwise another black mark for sony customer service.

bbc i player app has now appeared on android for download - but all it does is take you to the bbc i player mobile site no change from typing in bbc iplayer on google search - rubbish! and when i updated adobe player maybe hoping because it needs the update first the wedge shape fault was back so uninstall x2!!

Hi cbpete,

does it go to the bbcmobile site? no live tv? no live radio only repeats?

a poor version!

hi godzilla11,

the home page I have on tablet is the same as I have on my laptop. the picture is even good when enlarged to fit screen.  not tried the radio.

hi,

if you click on the bbc i player, what does it say on the web address at the top mine automatically changes to bbc iplayer mobile. does it say mobile in the web address?
