12/17 was yesterday. I read somewhere else that Walmart doesn't get them
until AFTER Christmas, Dec 27th. This manager was dreaming, I suppose, or
had been lied to, not unheard of at Wally World.

and for every one of those stories there are hundreds of apps that get
posted and sell. the guy who wrote trism made $250,000 in three
months. another company made more money selling iphone software in the
past six months than they did for *all other platforms* in the last
twenty years.

what evidence do you have that people want that? just because *you*
want it doesn't mean everyone else does. plus it's up to real to write
an iphone app if they want.

Real can write it, but will apple allow it ?
Flash can be ported over as well. Will apple allow it ?
There has to be a reason there is no flash support. I'm thinking the CPU
Cant take the strain.
Try going to a flash web site and you get nothing on a iPhone.
One of the biggest request for the iPhone is MMS. Lord only knows why after
18 Plus months there is still no MMS Support.
iPhone users need more flashlight apps.

Wrong guess. Adobe is currently writing it.

This isn't a court. But, EVERY iPhone owner who has seen me watching
streaming media on the Nokia N800 Linux tablets wants it....badly. Is that
a fair representation, a completely random sampling of iPhone users? Storm
users want it to, but my forensic lab report hasn't hit my desk, yet.
Outside of you, and the usual company fanboi shills posted here, not a
single iPhone user, even the salesmen at the Apple kiosk at Best Buy, has
said he DIDN'T want to be able to play those common, intensely-used
streaming codecs on his iPhone. NOT ONE!
I'd like to think that is all the evidence I need to present...especially
to you.

There is no streaming support because of AT&T Wireless, not Apple. ATT
will do anything to prevent the iPhone from using BANDWIDTH, and evidence
of that is the total lack of 3G streaming on iPhone. Notice how some
"features" automatically get turned on when you connect it to a wifi
node....further evidence it's ATT's hobbling.
Hey! It's a SELLphone! It's hobbled up just like all the other
SELLphones!........to maximize carrier profits with a minimum investment in
bandwidth and infrastructure.
Chickens will come to roost. Wimax does over 6.5Mbps down and 2.5Mbps up
in Baltimore, on a laptop on the street.....Patience, my son, patience....

But, once again, we're talking about a CONVERTER, not a codec. Livestation
is converting common formats to the very limited ability of the iPhone to
play. And, of course, this is, after the beta period is over, going to
COST you EXTRA, probably through your ATT bill so they can justify letting
it use bandwidth.
Another BOX OFFICE product for more and more profit.....not a real codec
you can stream UNCONTROLLED like Flash, Realmedia, mms, wmv on a wide
variety of webpages across the planet.
Where are the CODECS?

Give it a rest Larry. LiveStation is an improved way of streaming live
video. I am testing it as I type this.
Works just as good as any other solution I have seen. I am watching a
terrorist attack live on one of the middle eastern channels.
Too bad so sad for the jhidists it looks like the all got gunned down
with at least one cop still standing and a bunch more hurting or dead.
It is a little hard following the narrative since it is in Arabic.
What is really neat is that the underwater INTERNET fiber feed from
this area was cut yesterday so this has to be from a satellite feed.
LiveStation also transmits radio station audio feeds like several
other streaming applications all ready do on the iPhone.
LiveStation's, which is partially owned by Microsoft, claim to fame it
it does video too.

And like I said. Is apple going to allow it ? I'm sure It will be allowed as
Adobe would not do it unless Apple already ok'ed it.
What about MMS ? Has to be some reason why for that as well.
More Flashlight apps please.
