    Yes. The 8830 with the os 4.5 upgrade supports watching youtube videos. I watched one on my 8830 this morning.

    Yes. I can get sprint tv now. The 8330 version works on the 8830. Get it here http://www.mobitv.com/rim/8330/SpintTVBlackberry.jad

    I have not attempted to use the NFL video stuff. But I suspect it works too.

    This is all only on os 4.5 of course.

    You can download the upgrade from http://blackberry.com. Install the upgrade on your computer, then use desktop manager to upgrade your device. Make a backup before you upgrade, just in case. There are more specific instructions on this site and various other places on the web.

    Are you going to the mobile site for youtube, or the regular site?

    You should be going to m.youtube.com.

    I get that error sometimes. You may need to exit the browser and try again or do a battery pull. I don't know why, but that seems to fix the problem with some videos. Others just don't seem to work.
