I really hope it takes off but they really need volume controls (not just on and off) as the HTC mobile video is incredibly loud! Anyone seen the new break.com flash player - take it a little far but just proves what can done if you've got the time and inclination. There's no chance of multicasting yet though - although the BBC have trialled it unless the ISPs wake up it won't happen. Don't think it's possible in Flash anyway, never seen any mention of it in FMS. Chris
