Movidity: like YouTube for your phone, but newer and untested
There's plenty of ways to transfer YouTube or Google videos to a mobile device. But what if you don't feel like downloading and transcoding videos to save on your phone? Movidity hopes you'll just say YouWho? and use their site instead.Movidity plans to launch movy.tv in January. The site will let users upload audio or video content which will automatically be converted into a format that is viewable on most smartphones and PCs. You'll be able to browse videos from any phone with a web browser and JAVA/MIDP2 support. If you visit the site on a PCE, you'll be able to watch videos in Shockwave format.
Of course, just because you can doesn't mean you will. And while user-generated video sharing sites are becoming a dime a dozen these days, I'm guessing most folks are just going to wait for industry-leader YouTube to roll out its own mobile service.
