There's been some confusion since then, but Elgado was nice enough to contact us and straighten things out. <!--break-->

A few websites were reporting earlier today that <i>EyeTV</i> was back and still had 3D streaming, causing a lot of confusion for a lot of people (ourselves included). Since then, Elgado explained to us that version 1.0 was re-released again by mistake instead of the 3G-less version. They also restated that the "easter egg" was in fact left in the release version by mistake and was supposed to be removed before it was released.

<i>EyeTV</i> has now been updated to 1.0.1, which does not have 3G streaming functionality.</div>

Does not have 3G streaming unless you jailbreak your iPhone and use 3G Unrestictor and then it streams over 3G just fine.

Not to be too much of a jerk, but it's "Elgato" not "Elgado". And "3G" not "3D".

Fixed. Thank you!

It's a premium app ($2.99) from BigBoss & Planet iPhones. Works with 2G, 3G & 3GS as long as you have firmware 3.0 or higher.

works with slingbox as well

i lost all use of my paid apps this morning until i updated my eyetv app to the newest version. all the apps that came with my iphone worked just fine, but none of the paid ones worked at all. i wasn't too happy about the situation. i could see if whoever (i'm assuming apple) prevented the eyetv app from working, but all my paid app? i don't see how that is fair control. and that's exactly how it felt, you will update. i hope no one else has this issue.
