Straight from Engadget: “The war against your eyesight is on. Sprint is busting out a new pay-per-view movie service that streams full-length flicks to your tiny screen. They’ve already got 45 titles lined up for the service, including popular titles like National Treasure, Spider-Man 2 and Scarface. The new Sprint Movies service is in addition to Sprint’s current mSpot movie service, which offers an all-you-can-eat selection of video content for 7 bucks a month. Sprint Movies can be controlled much like a DVD, with the ability to skip between chapters and resume the flick where it gets left off. Movies cost between $4 and $6 each, with rental periods ranging from 24 hours and one week, and 24 hour extensions are available for a buck. Check the read link for the full movie selection — we’re totally all over that Kindergarten Cop action.”

Greattttt. Whose’s brilliant idea was this? Not only do I ask “Who the hell wants to see a movie on their inch wide mobile phone”? I also ask “2 Hour movie, 1 and a half battery watching such a video feed? Any questions?”
Still, it is damn amazing. To go from the Commadore 64 to beyond that tech and having it fit in the palm of our hands is absolutely incredible.
