True - orb is free and I use it on windows mobile devices, but Verizon Wireless intentionally blocked the service (and slingbox too it seems) on my high end Motorola e815. They configured the web browser not to allow video files/playlists to be passed to the media player. As far as I know there's no way around this (and yeah it really sucks because Verizon's offerings just don't cut it)
