Hey All-

OK, this is a shameless plug of my young upstart company. :oops:

but we would love your feedback on some breakthrough apps that my company is working on.

Video rich DVD-like apps for time killing on the PPC we call them LiquiVision (tm)

The content will be derived from major motion pics or sports.

The beta we have is from a 2002 Sundance FF movie...our app helped the filmmakers create buzz and they sold it for over $4M!

There are problems of course.

1. Its a 45Mb application...a bit heavy to download even with broadband

2. It pushes the current 3865 iPAQ i have to the limits...especially PPC 2002 OS.

3. Without firewire, it then takes another 10 minutes or so to transfer over Compaq's super slow USB connection to your PPC.

But when you finally get in on the device...its pretty damn cool for a beta.

Over 15 minutes of interactive video, a jukebox of songs from the film, cast and crew bios and the trailer...

we have a case study on our web site...

www.liquivision.com

...our hope is that our killer apps will help push the PPC to new levels...faster procrssors, more storage and speedier connectivity so video on the go is a reality...and wireless 3G so the video can stream

would love any comments good bad or otherwise...

if someone wants to try it out, let me know...but remember its a big file you will need 45MB of room...

thanks,

Tim
