All you need is a mobile device that can take video and send MMS messages, and an Internet access or data plan from your service provider. We currently support uploads from Cingular, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon. To get started, click on "Create Mobile Profile." Login, or create an account if you don't already have one. Once you're logged in, you'll create a mobile profile to set up the default information for your videos, and then our system will generate the email address where you should send them. This address will be unique to you and your profile, and you can have up to two profiles."</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Temporale-20060512-YouTube.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />YouTube goes mobile. Well, sort of. It looks like you can upload files from your Windows Mobile device but you can't watch them just yet. :? With any luck this will change in the not too distant future. For those of you making home movies on your mobile device, I'm sure this news is making you jump for joy. ;)

YouTube is a cool service. This just makes it better. But viewing YouTube video on out phones requires FLASH. Unless Adobe makes a FlashPlayer for Smartphones or YouTube changes their file format....we're out of luck on the viewing end.

Those on the Pocket PC are having problems viewing the video's even if they have the latest version of Flash on their devices. So it seems like something isn't working somewhere.
