Catch the World Cup Live on Your EVO 4G

by Kevin Krause on June 3rd, 2010 at 2:29 pm

Any fútbol fans out there? If you are, then you no doubt are foaming at the mouth for the upcoming 2010 FIFA World Cup, which kicks off a week from today. Can’t make it to South Africa to catch some matches in person or just too busy to settle down and take in all of the action from the comfort of your living room? Sprint has you covered, as live World Cup coverage through ESPN Mobile TV is coming to a handset near you. And what better handset to experience it with than the HTC EVO 4G?

Imagine taking in the crisp and clear action streamed at 4G speed to a beautiful 4.3-inch display. It won’t beat a 50″ HD big screen, but hey, if you flip out the kickstand and put your face close enough to your EVO it just might come close.

You get access to the opening ceremonies taking place June 10th, 56 live World Cup games, the semifinal matches occurring July 6-7, and the final match on July 11, and it is already included with your $69.99 Everything Data plan.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAL!

Shouldn’t it be possible to display that on the 50″ HD screen with the HDMI Cable?

I’m hating on anyone has the EVO.!!!!!
Will
Is ESPN mobile TV an app that is put on the EVO automatically? Or is it something we have to get from the marketplace? I don’t have an android yet (the evo will be my first), so i’m just curious as to how I will be able to get this.

@tabo The HDMI TV out does not work with sprint TV.

Football is spelled Football, can we not disrespect the sport, it was here long before pig-skin throwing
Patrick
This makes me that much happier that I pre-ordered the EVO. Can’t wait for the World Cup to start

@Rimzy – agreed. Football has been called, and spelled, “Football” in the English-speaking world outside of USA for a long time. I’m actually a bit annoyed when I have to call Football “soccer” to avoid confusion on American-centric sites. In any case, I’ve been checking up on World Cup apps in the run-up to the competition. Some of the better free football or WC apps that work with OS 1.5 [sadly, that's what I have] are “Soccer Livescores”, “World DroidCup”, Africa10″, “FotMob” [v.4.0, v.5.0, and the purely World Cup version].
