@magnuslu - I'd expect the BBC will have a stream by the time the world cup starts.

It isn't ideal, but as it's so close to the world cup now hoping for an app might be a waste of energy? I'm trying to be more pragmatic than negative but apologies if you feel I'm being more of the first.

There may well be cut down websites designed for mobile browsing or better rss feeds.

In fact now i think about it, it would be much easier for someone to make a page scraping app in (php/curl, etc) optimised for the n900 than a fully fledged app?
