Here is information about an over the air TV tuner for the iPhone. In my
opinion it’s over priced, and I’m sure reception will only work well when
you are stationary, but they don’t tell you that. Still, for someone that
has no way of getting TV streams it might be interesting. No idea how
accessible the mobile app is with Voiceover. Also it’s wired with a plug
for the iPhone 4, which means you need a $20 adapter from apple to make it
work with the 5.
