MI:III (Mission Impossible 3) is the first movie to be premiered on memory cards at the same time as the DVD release. Are you kidding me? Yeah, I know that the Nokia N93 phone looks like something that James Bond (or Tom Cruise’s character) might carry around, but a 2.4 inch screen does not make viewing a pleasure . Remember this manufacturers: a minimum of 3.5-4″ screens, please. What’s the point otherwise?
But get this, the entire movie fits on a 512Mb miniSD card and runs at 25 fps (frames per second), This might be something that Spock had on board the Star Trek Enterprise. Remember those flat rectangular plastic doodads that the crew would sometimes shift from fake interface slot to slot? Maybe they were Friday night movies for the crew. Oh, the N93, which doubles as a camcorder, is only being introduced with the movie to select European countries.

Mobile video, for me anyway, leaves a lot to be desired - like actually working. These icons link to social bookmarking sites where readers can share and discover new web pages. […]
