February 1st, 2012 by Leslie Meredith, TechNewsDaily  

It takes more than a 55-inch HDTV, chips and chili to round out Super Bowl Sunday. Load your smartphone or tablet with game-day apps to see footage you can’t get on the big screen, win prizes and brush up on NFL trivia.

For the first time, the big game will be live-streamed to mobile phones, but only through Verizon. NFL Mobile app will offer additional camera angles, in-game highlights and updated stats as the game progresses. However, different ads will play on the app than on NBC’s live broadcast. The NFL says app users will be able to view replays of the broadcast ads. Verizon is waiving its $10 a month video fee for 4G customers, but others will have to subscribe to VCast to see the live stream. One big caution — watching the game may put you over your data limit. Alternately, fans can watch the game live on their computers at nfl.com and NBCSports.com without risking data overages.
