YouTube on your mobile phone?

Reuben Lee | Nov 02, 2006

It looks like mobile users will soon be able to share video clips with others via their cell phones. According to news reports, Chad Hurley, who is the chief executive and co-founder of popular video-sharing portal YouTube, revealed at a recent summit in New York that the company plans to offer something on a mobile device within the next year.

Currently, the company has a YouTube To Go service for users to upload video clips via their phone for viewing on the Web site. This new service is expected to go one step further by allowing YouTube users to upload and view the clips from their cellular devices.

YouTube was acquired by Internet search giant Google in a US$1.65 billion deal last month.

Dopod plans Excalibur rollout in Asia

Reuben Lee | Nov 01, 2006

The much talked-about slim smart phone from HTC, the Excalibur, will finally make its debut in Asia. According to Dopod, the mobile device, which will be marketed under the model name C720W, is expected in Singapore stores before the end of November. It will be gradually introduced throughout the Asia region over the next few weeks.

Many industry observers believe the C720W will pose a strong challenge to the recently launched Samsung SGH-i320N and the soon-to-be-released (hopefully!) Moto Q, as the Excalibur is the only one among the three to offer onboard 802.11g wireless LAN. It will also support both Windows Mobile DirectPush and BlackBerry Connect services. Priced at S$898 (US$631.15), the C720W comes standard with a 1.3-megapixel camera, microSD slot, 2.4-inch QVGA display and Bluetooth stereo (A2DP) compatibility.
