The lone button is on the left where as in real life, as you rotate the iPhone, the button is on the right. Is it fake??]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mitch]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 6th 2007 10:04AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BBC's iPlayer to work on iPhone?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/bbcs-iplayer-to-work-on-iphone/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/bbcs-iplayer-to-work-on-iphone/</guid><description><![CDATA[it's not fake u can rotate either way in certain modes. the camera works this way. cool app though. maybe once version 2 comes out in the U.S. and with 3g or 3.5g we'll get an app that way. i bet the second version of the iphone will comeout here to coincide with the launch over seas.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Judson]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 6th 2007 10:34AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BBC's iPlayer to work on iPhone?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/bbcs-iplayer-to-work-on-iphone/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/bbcs-iplayer-to-work-on-iphone/</guid><description><![CDATA[the iPhone can rotate both ways]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Pat]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 6th 2007 10:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BBC's iPlayer to work on iPhone?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/bbcs-iplayer-to-work-on-iphone/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/bbcs-iplayer-to-work-on-iphone/</guid><description><![CDATA[The BBC are working on different versions of iPlayer for different devices. The iPlayer is a catchup TV service that requires DRM so that the content is only used within the terms of service. Since Apple are unlikely to licence the iTunes DRM this is probably going to be a streaming service rather that a DRM download service. This is the quickest way that the BBC can bring iPlay to Mac's, Linux and other devices such as the iPhone.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sean]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 6th 2007 12:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BBC's iPlayer to work on iPhone?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/bbcs-iplayer-to-work-on-iphone/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/bbcs-iplayer-to-work-on-iphone/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'd agree its fake. Since the plans for a Mac/Vista/Linux version are 2008, how, or why would they develop an iPhone app, and why would the Beeb deal with Apple? It just seems too unlikely. More to the point, why would they use coverflow unless they were running through iTunes which as of yet doesn't offer movies or TV. <br>While its a cool idea, and I'd love to be able to watch BBC, (although not to forget Channel 4, ITV, Five, and all the cable/satelite channels too) I don't think we'll be seeing that soon.<br>Oh yeah, and why wouldn't someone in the US thought about this too? Is the potential UK iPhone market really expected to be that financially profitable? Not likely.<br>I actually wrote a post about the iPlayer today at <a href="http://domster83.wordpress.com/2007/08/14/bbc-idont-player-very-well/" rel="nofollow">http://domster83.wordpress.com/2007/08/14/bbc-idont-player-very-well/</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dom]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 14th 2007 1:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BBC's iPlayer to work on iPhone?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/bbcs-iplayer-to-work-on-iphone/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/bbcs-iplayer-to-work-on-iphone/</guid><description><![CDATA[And what else just occured to me. If that demo video is true, then the application looks like its working fairly well. If thats true, they have a client for Mac OS X since the iPhone runs OSX. So why isn't the mac client available to beta test? Who knows.<br>I want to believe its true, but I'm skeptical. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dom]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 14th 2007 1:49PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
