Biggest problem with Wii is minimal storage, whereas 360 and PS3 have
drives. I've been working on various content delivery to the devices
(Xbox is exception- no browser), and I've loved downloading media
directly to the hard drive on the PS3. And yeah, Youtube works great
as do many iPhone apps.
Okay, FAIL on my forum skills, I missed your original post.
One thing I didn't clarify is that while the Wii has crap for storage,
it falls into the 'streamy' category of things like present-day
iPhones. There's a series of radio stations I listen to that are
streamed via flash, and it works up

The Xbox 360 has no browser, but you can stream to it via Windows Media

Hey Frank,
I've had a Wii for a while now and it's not the best platform for watching
Internet mainly
because I think that there is some memory limitation to it. If you try to watch
a bunch of
youtube videos in a row or a longer form video on Google Video it will crash
after about
20 or 30
That would be the lack of storage problem Eric Rice referred to in a
different post. The Wii has no place to buffer video files (other than the
very limited storage). When you run out of space for buffering video it
barfs.
It's funny. I'm using http://www.qik.com http://www.qik.com/ now and
Thats fine for creating video, but I the issue here is watching video, even
streaming video
needs to be cashed somewhere while it's being streamed from the Internet, it
seems that
thats the problem with the Wii. As near as I can tell there isn't any way to
create and post
video from the Wii.
256 MB runs out quickly.
Also, can't save the file then.

I'll be testing Vimeo on these consoles, only since I don't personally
want to move backwards in production quality. I'm on the TV, maybe on
a home theater, I want HIGHER rez and prod quality, not less. That's
my preference for the living room (and why I hate the Apple TV)... I
want to make those
I was mostly worried about watching video and if this was an easy path
to the TV.
There are 17+ million Wii owners out there, which is way higher than
Apple TV or even the iPhone. The other interesting factor is that the
Wii is opening up a whole different demographic that is buying game
I'd suspect gaming-related or nintendo-related content (video) is an
easier sell to the console owners than run of the mill web video they
can get on youtube anyway.
I lose much sleep over this, heh.

Flash 7 I think?but I did find a way on Cnet to do something pretty
neat with the Wii, a media stream device, download Orb and then use
the Wii to watch videos or listen to music, I have yet to try it out
but plan to soon,
