I first noticed this post on the Boy Genius Report’s blog about a loop hole in the EyeTV application for the iPhone which allows users to connect and stream live TV over a 3G connection.  Like the Slingbox application EyeTV works to stream your home television broadcasts over a WiFi connection only.

Turns out when you receive the error message that a Wifi connection is required when trying to connect over 3G all you have to do is tap on the text of the message instead of the OK button and your connection initiates.  The image above shows my EyeTV connected over 3G.

I don’t expect this version to stay in the iTunes App Store for very long so if you’re thinking of picking up an EyeTV I’d grab the application here now while you still can.
