This is what kills me about iphone users, they think this stuff is new.

Not only can you do this on WinMo but also over Bluetooth :p

Not at all. Was doing this with my Sony Ericsson and WinMo phones for  
a couple of years... Or were you trying to provoke a reaction? ;)

Re: [backstage] BBC DRM iplayer mobiles etc

…on any mobile device, set top box (STB), handheld, phone, web
 pad, tablet or Tablet PC (other than Windows XP Tablet PCEdition and 
 its successors), game console, TV, DVD player, mediacenter (other 
 than Windows XP Media Center Edition and itssuccessors), electronic 
 billboard or other digital signage,internet appliance or other 
 internet-connected device, PDA,medical device, ATM, telematic 
 device, gaming machine, homeautomation system, kiosk, remote control 
 device, or any otherconsumer electronics device, operator-based 
 mobile, cable,satellite, or television system or other closed system 
 device. So forget using it with any non-licensed Linux set top box or 
 non-MS XBMC, Freevo etc. So blatantly pro-Microsoft :-|
Yes, the fact that this will run on all the Linux PCs in both my houseand 
office is a shockingly pro-Microsoft move and must be stopped!

2008/10/15 Andrew Gibb [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 The thing I've found with the iPhone is that I don't need to use my
 physics degree to work out how to do the few things it does. I've been
 carrying devices around in my pocket that could do all manner of clever
 stuff for half a decade, but never until this one was I able to work out
 how to make them actually work.

The fact that this will run only with proprietary software is
continuing the BBC's discriminatory policy against software freedom,
and it must be stopped.

My Linux box is PowerPC. But it is a great comfort to know that you
