...although the on-screen graphics guy seems to have gone on strike this week! :P
Would love to give those headphones a go, I reckon they'd be great for blocking out the crap music they play at MK when I'm snowboarding!

of watching of this stuff on my iPod touch.. The problem comes when
the feed is a few days behind the actual post of the podcast. If there
were a direct link to either the main file or the 3gp file than the
touch will take that link and queue it up in the media player...
Basically streams it. Rather self serving request, but I tend to be
better with direct downloads then remembering to sync so that my new
podcasts can be downloaded!
Thanks all, loving having a good long show to watch!

Congratulations - you were picked on this week's show as the winner of the rather super Etymotics (like Shure's for discerning people) headset. Ping me an e-mail at ben.smith@mobileindustryreview.com and we'll post them over to you!
Ben
any appetite for it?

Plus, brilliant T-Shirt Dan!
Brilliant episode as ever!

Those earphones look great. Just the thing I was looking for to be used with my iPhone.
I'll swap the headphones for a packet of custard creams...... Ok, Ok, Jammie Dodgers then.....
+1 for an interview with James Body...how many devices again in his pockets?
Not sure about the earphones though, especially in London. I like to be able to hear if anyone is coming up behind me...
Is the duck available for PAs at all?

The bit where Dan received his T-shirt (thank goodness the boys chose the right colour) was quite moving - there was a tear of joy in his eye!
The biggest accolade has to go to Ewan - who must has given up hours of his Bank Holiday weekend to edit out all the giggling and naughty words!!

1) Stop the video pausing for a second on a regular basis; we're talking around once a minute, perhaps more (running on a MBP w/10.5.2)
2) Whatleydude stopping interrupting the true stars of the show with bits of useless trivia.
I'll be watching again!
Mac Pro ;-) Were you viewing the Vimeo video or did you download it?
And as for Whatleydude's trivia, it is loved and obsessed over by many!
2008/8/25 Disqus <>
What's your definition of 'many' in this instance? ;)

...got any stats on number of Nokia owners who actually bother using NPC Suite / handset-as-modem? 1%? 2%?
S2 w00t!
..and if you want to talk numbers, let's talk actuals.
1-2% of all Nokia users use their handset as a modem.
Would we say that, in actuals, that number will be greater than that of S2 Handset owners?
*yawn*
It's a nice phone dude, but your anti-nokia bandwagon does get tiresome sometimes.
And this is coming from the guy who was *actually* impressed at the Sony Ericsson party last night...
pwned in the nicest-possible way ;-)
No anti-Nokia here chap, looking at the 3 of them on my desk...just anti-silly ideas, like having to download stuff to, er, download stuff.
Bet you dinner somewhere nice that the % of S2 users eating HAM (Handset As Modem) will waaaaaaaay outstrip the % of Nokia users eating HAM within a month. And that the split will just accelerate. This is important for us as an industry.
This is the lesson vendors should learn. Must learn. Will learn. Have learned from the runaway success that has been self-install USB dongles.
'Actuals' mean nothing. 'Actuals' (as my man Roger Waters once quipped) make Grease a better record than Graceland.
Pip pip!

Could you tell me where to order this online as Apu has barred me for putting rum in the Squishy machine.
Please can I win the headphones, they will do a great job of blocking out my sisters constant saxaphone playing.
Thanks.
then i can watch it on my ipod etc, which would be awesome!
you could encode a lower res version for that i reckon

apparently the bold was on edge, not wifi. ack! ah well, i'm not a fan of blackberry's anyway, so don't mind either way :p
keep it up guys
This is the *Mobile* Industry Review, and (apart from JoikuSpot) WiFi ain't mobile.
Certainly in Europe, there just isn't any compelling evidence that people flock to WiFi locations. Sure, if you can be bothered setting up a Cloud sub, and you have battled through the logon process you might use it if it's around, but you won't up sticks and hike a mile just to log on at a Star*ucks.
Keep up the good work chaps.

Also, you only have of first because it's a Canadian invention... Insert Celine Dion joke here.
Furthermore... Aboot! :P
Oh, and I'll be making a trip up to BC soon, I'm assuming I shouldn't even bother trying to data roam up there as it'll cost me my firstborn?
-olly
Only comment I would make is that it didn't feel as smoothly edited as the othe Podcasts, not sure why.. but hey ho!
into about 8 hours.

thanks dudes.

Maybe Ben Smith will scroll to me the next time free stuff is given out. Maybe those headphones. The question is, are they actually worth 100 quid?
We can give you:
- 176x144 (this is the 3GP format we use at the moment)
- 480x272 (this is the 180-200mb format we upload to Vimeo and put into the
Large Video feed)
- 640x540
- 960x540
- HD DVD quality -- now we're talking gigabytes though.

Would like a higher quality mobile version, but given how long you chaps go on, the file will be 300mb :)
Hopefully Ben Smith will scroll to me when the Etymotics are given away. Or something else. Hope it doesn't cost more to send it across the pond than it's actually worth. ;)
I'm recording my ones for you soon - little fame whore that I am!

2. We take a look at the 3 Skypephone S2. (2:19)
3. NEWS - We’ve got lots of news and commentary on last week’s happenings....(5:14)
:)
So, here's a weird thing that happened recently. I went to our new IKEA here in South Florida. As usual in large buildings down here, there is no reception. What is weird, however, is that my phone, an n82 for which there is no 3G in America, displayed the 3G symbol while I was walking around. I tried to access a website, which didn't work, of course, but it was strange.
Only time I've seen the 3G symbol since getting this phone.
