Orb Networks brings YouTube / Google Video to your smartphone
by Darren Murph posted Nov 17th 2006 @ 6:41PM
If you've been waiting ever so patiently for YouTube to make an official debut on the mobile side, and can't get TinyTube to work out just right, help is on the way. While Verizon is hoping to land an exclusive deal regarding YouTube content and its V CAST services, Orb Networks is releasing software which lets cellphone users "view, search, and create media channels from the internet" and direct it onto handhelds / laptops" from sites like YouTube or Google Video." While Orb's PC-accessing software has been available for some time now, this newly-unveiled program will put the zany clips of YouTube (and other online video resources) into the palm of you hand way before any of the other guys. While a list of compatible mobiles wasn't disclosed, it was stated that the software would "only operate on sophisticated smartphones" such as Nokia's N80 and Motorola's Q -- so, do your duty and hit the read link for your free download, cool?[Via Yahoo News]
Unofficial effort yields mobile Google Video
by Chris Ziegler posted Oct 27th 2006 @ 5:49PM
Google has managed to show a good deal of love toward the mobile community as of late, culminating recently with the (more dubious) arrival of mobile AdWords. It seems a bit odd, then, that they've completely overlooked Google Video in the process. Scott Robbin, who fashioned his own solution to the problem, puts it best: "How many times have you been sitting on the train, with nothing to do, and you thought to yourself, 'Boy, I'd really like to be watching a video about pickles,' only to realize that you have none on your person? If you're like me, then the answer is plenty." According to Scott's site, the rig works on any phone with an XHTML-compliant browser that has (or can get hold of) an AVI / MP4 player; you just surf on over to a page he's set up and search for video as you normally would and links provide access to the videos themselves. Hey Google, how does it feel to get shown up by one motivated fella who likes his video on the road?[Via Crave]
