PCS Vision on Sprint Q??? - Motorola Q Forum

tribaltalon · 01-26-2007, 08:59 AM

have you guys noticed that if you go to settings, and go to the very last setting, there's something about the pcs vision? i wonder if there is a way to be able to watch tv through the sprint tv network since apparently pcs vision is enabled? anybody know anything on this? my GF works for sprint and she's checking on this too but nobody seems to know so far.

PCS Vision is just what Sprint calls their internet. Having it enabled means you can go online. You can't watch the Sprint TV because the necessary software isn't on the Q. I personally wouldn't even if it was though because I have a Slingbox (which does work with the Q) so I can watch all my TV live.

Almost positive that I read in the sprint manual that came with the Q and on the website, that the Q does NOT work with SprintTV. The RAZR does, but I specifically remember reading that the more advance Q does not work. Haven't tried to see if I could get it to work yet, but that's what I read.

If you have unlimited PowerVision data (EVDO) - go with the Slingbox. Very cool and no monthly charge beyond the phone fees as well as the cost of the Slingbox.

Yep, no Sprint TV, but they have a limited lineup anyway, Slingbox or even Orb.com are an option though. I'd be interested to here from someone who has tried both Sling and Orb, and see which they prefer, specifically interested in how good the connection is with whatever compress they use.

I haven't seen anyone who has used Orb, but a friend of mine has a Slingbox and I was very impressed with the picture and how fast he could change channels, it reacts just like your TV.

Really? Orb is very slow to change... huh.

Could I sling with a vision plan?? Can someone explain the difference between vision and powervision? I got my Q through Sprint SERO and it says I have a vision plan

I have the Slingbox on my Sprint Q. It works very well. I had a 700wx with the slingbox, but it is much better on the Q because you can view it full screen.

vision/powervision = unlimited internet plan opposed to being charged per kb.
