Web-based BitTorrent control for your mobile phone

by Joshua Topolsky, posted Jul 28th 2007 at 4:27PM

Some people are on the move a lot, so much that they can't even take the time to start a BitTorrent download. Luckily, a solution to their problem has arrived - and it's called µTorrent mUI. µTorrent mUI is an open source, WebUI client that monitors a home session of the popular PC app, µTorrent, and allows you to look in on how current downloads are coming along, or stop and start torrents. All you need to begin feverishly checking up on your "movies" is a phone with a browser, such as Opera, and the compulsive need to keep tabs on your files.

Update: "Thanks" to the commenters who were a bit quicker than us on realizing we'd misrepresented µTorrent mUI's purpose. You guys are quick!

[Thanks, Ken]

If you're on a S60 phone, is most easier to use Symtorrent!

I use �Torrent as my home PC bittorrent client, it is one of the best out there and uses very little resources. Thanks for posting this....

Hmm,

duh ! Mobile webinterfaces for all kinds of software including mule, azureus, and others have been around almost as long as the softwares. Writing about symtorrent or others that actually download on the phone (making my e61, 2gb minisd and the many free hotspots in the city an interesting combination :) would have made more sense.

-1 point for this one ;)
