Best way to stream Sky/BT on an iPad?

Gonna be away for the European 1/2 rounds. Bringing the ipad with me but it doesn't support flash... Any tricks on getting streams to catch the games?

You mean you can't even watch a rugby match on those stupid fecken things? There is a great android app that lets you watch all the pay channels for free. Sadly I don't know what it's called (cause I already have those channels) or if there is an ios equivalent.

I know a guy who connects his android phone to his telly to watch stuff on this app

Probably showbox or mobdro.

Yeah, sometimes having apple sucks.

Swings and roundabouts innit.

Somebody, somewhere mentioned a media box that connects the tV to the internet for streaming purposes (I presume)

Advise would be appreciated. Is this the same thing as a slingbox or streamboxtv type thingee.
Actually a little glossary would be useful. Not asking much I know but what the hell.

Use Puffin browser on the iPad. It manages to do flash video through some clever tricks.

Look up Belkin @TV on Amazon, it works like a slingbox, costs about £30 and streams to pc, ipad, kindle for certain as we use all 3, only 1 at a time though over net and it works anywhere you can get wifi with no geographical blocking. Just standard and connects with scart or component cables to tv/sky box etc and allows recording on the receiving ipad etc as the drm for movies etc is not transmitted without HDMI.
