The BBC announced yesterday that their iPlayer is now available on the iPhone and iPod touch via any WiFi connection, though free for all on the Cloud wifi hotspots. Sadly, unlike the YouTube feature of the iPhone, it will not work over the EDGE network as it is too slow, but the concept of life on the move is certainly added to.
To be able to watch any of the last week's television on the Internet is quite an achievement but when taken mobile it becomes even more admirable.
The corporation have struck a deal with the Cloud, provider of WiFi hotspots to a number of locations across the UK, to allow access to all BBC Internet services for free. O2 included free access to the Cloud to all its customers as part of their contract so that perk wont make too much of a difference for iPhone users, but opens a whole new world to iPod touch fans.
So I am going to sit on the couch being a slob, TV, laptop and phone watching.
