TV Mama News Briefs
Here are the four most important news items showing more proof that convergence is real, that platforms are connecting and that all of this may (someday) be easy enough for most of us to use:
- Korea’s Compass produces a hi-def PC/TV combo.
- Buried in the news of a new AT&T mobile video sharing technology is this tidbit about media convergence: Video Share ultimately will be accessible over any of the three primary screens that customers use most frequently. These are “the wireless device, the PC and the television.” AT&T also says researchers at its labs are perfecting service enhancements that eventually will enable wireless video feeds now aimed at mobile user to be shared over IPTV or PC screens.
- HungryFlix.com now offers independent videos and movies that can be viewed on iPhones or Apple TV. See also: BigBanana.TV .
- Computer World reports that Apple published a patent that would allow iPhones and iPods to control Apple TV video and music files. Now the darn things may become remote controls, too.
