Good luck... let me know if you do figure out a way. BTW what do you want it for? you can get coverage of a lot of things like footbal etc from cable here, or from the net.
But what shall it profit a people if they satisfy all material desires, but leave for their children nothing, only a wasteland.

Your chance of getting GAA is about as big as me seeing a Jokerit-IFK game in Galway.

Besides which Setanta Finland - if there was one - would by all probability be showing ice hockey and not hurling... Setanta ie is on a SKY package, but as one cannot legally get SKY in Finland and illegally it requires a huge dish into the right direction without obstruction... I think that cousin of yours with a VCR is still your best&only chance...

Blimey... wow... not bad at all for sports addicts.

Now of course it requires a non-Irish credit card to work, apparently from the small print, but I can't figure out their 'zones' something there in the site don't work for me.

Now if someone gets that to work frome these parts we should get the link stickied. Jussi, I bet you're scourging the earth for Oz rules?;)

Well I looked into this a little more, and it seems setanta have limited the broadband service to continental US and Australia...sad but true. I have emailed them and asked if it is possible to get it in Finland but no reply yet. so Ill let you know if I have any joy!!
