So, once ou guys get the iphone thing figured out, can you post here pleeease? I have the newest iphone so thats good. What Im hearing so far is that you can pay 10 bucks from Real, but do you still need cloudbrowse, since Iphone doesnt do flash? CB doesnt get that great reviews, and they say it lags, so if the feeds lag, its not worth the 10 bucks. Also do you need unlimited data? how is the data measured? I used to have unlimited, but switched it since I never used much. If you go thru Cloudbrowse, does it still use data?? sigh,....I finally got realplayer figured out, and now this!

CloudBrowse has nothing to do with Real. It's an app that has been available for over a year at the Apple App Store and worked playing the feeds last year on iPhone and iPad for me. I bought the app and paid nothing extra to Real to watch feeds on my mobile devices. Real doing whatever they are doing this year - I know nothing about it yet. They are charging the additional mobile device fee and I don't know what anyone gets for that. IF CloudBrowse works again on the feeds this year - if it works, those that use it don't have to pay the additional fee to Real. But - I don't know what changes Real have made to their setup this year. I only know, or rather, have read, that the feeds will be "compatible" with iOS4 devices. That's all I know, peeps.

The feeds will be a real data hog via the CloudBrowse browser or Real. Huge. Either use a wireless (wi-fi) connection with a mobile device or use a device that does have an unlimited data plan.

ok, so If Im on wi-fi it wont eat data...good to know!! I knew that cloudbrowse ha been around awhile, but I never got it. Last year I had to old Iphone, so I dont think it worked. thanks Bonza! so I guess I will wait to hear more about the Real ap. I would think the CB would still work, since I thought it was supposed to replicate your desktop. Wish they would come ot with more info...geez! I need to get everything up and running smoothly before the 7th!!!

Bonza..LOL! That makes two of us! All I know is that last year I watched the feeds on my Android phone without any extra charge. I do have a year round SuperPass, but I don't think that makes a difference. I just went to the website and signed in...that was it. If in addition to the yearly subscription, they expect me to pay another fee, that would be disappointing. So far there is no Big Brother or CBS app on the Android market that I can find. I can watch the Flashbacks just fine. It is true that watching the feeds runs down the battery rather quickly.

I found a little info on this site...but it is still unclear to me exactly how this will work. In the meantime I have sent Real an email asking for clarification. http://bigbrothernetwork.com/big-brother-12-goes-mobile-download-the-apps/

Ahhhh, well this site explains it well. For those that purchase the 3 month subscription, the mobile app will be extra. But it does not mention those that have the yearly subscription. Bet it is still extra... http://www.onlinebigbrother.com/2011/06/big-brother-13-live-feed-early-bird-special-29-99-for-3-months/

Okay guys, any ideas when we'll get our first look at the houseguests? I think we get to see them right around the day they go into the house. I think that will be the 30th or the 1st.

I thought the feeds didn't come on until after the "first" show of the season.

Lexie - Feeds don't come on until the show airs on the west coast, but they release photos and bios of the houseguests a few days before.

You might want to get the Superpass feeds early- they're planning a pre-show called Rumor Control w/ Ragan and Danielle Donato.. and from what I hear, Media Day is tomorrow, but the info will be embargoed until next Tuesday (the 28th)- but there's always the chance of leaks beforehand. The HG's should be in the house on the 30th, perhaps the 1st...so sometime next week we should know the cast.

Christii - they go into the sequester for about a week or two, then they are in the house almost a whole week before we get to see them on the live feed. I complain about this every year, and oddly enough, it gets me nowhere...

Well...Real answered...not only do I have to pay extra for the mobile feeds even though I have a year round subscription...but I don't even get the discounted fee of $10 for 3 months....!!! I only have the option of the $4.99 a month!!! Wow! Way to treat your loyal customers Real!!!!

Red, I heard the Thursday show is at 9pm this year instead of 8 because of the CBS sitcoms...

Thanks Rosem, that's what I meant to say. I shouldn't have been in so much of a hurry.
