Skyfire and Hulu
wmseto | 08 October, 2008 00:54
I am running skyfire browser and watching video from Hulu.com on my N95 8GB. The sound and picture quality is pretty good. (okay the picture is small). So far this is the only solution on mobile device I can actually watch streaming from Hulu.com.
For those who don't know. Skyfire browser is a thin client browser running on S60 and Window mobile platforms. It is now in public beta. So you can try it too. Hulu.com is high quality video/tv/movie streaming site, a joint venture by News Corp-NBC Universal. Now I am not sure if non-US IP address can stream or not, but the site has lot of good video. Try it!! (You can let me know if non-US IP can stream or not!)
S60 Browser, iPhone browser (of course there is not even flv support), and N810 browser all fail my hulu.com test. :-) While many companies are investing in thier own mobile browsers, (Nokia, Apple, Google...), a thin client come out on top...Well at least in my use case.
