Apple Thoughts: DirecTV App for iPad Now Available

"Apparently that "coming soon" teaser page meant only a few days, as the aptly named DirecTV App for iPad popped up on the iTunes store this morning."

You need to have one of the Plus HD DVR models to use this free app, but it is handy for remote functions such as setting up recordings you may have forgotten while at home. You can't stream video on it, but I wouldn't have expected that without some adapter such as the Sling player that Dish Network uses.
