Ipod Touch Netflix

Yes, it is definitely been awhile since I have posted. I still use my Ipod Touch everyday for something, but mostly now for its primary function which is listening to music.

There is a new application that I have waited for a long time which is the Netflix application. You can now stream movies on the tiny screen on wifi. I tried it and it was pretty good. However, it does suck up your battery fast.

Netflix on the iphone

I just read about this today. Netflix is coming to the iphone which should mean it will be available to the ipod touch. If that is the case, then I will be extremely happy that I can stream my netflix movies on it.

PC World:

Video games FarmVille and Guitar Hero along with streaming video service Netflix are all inbound for Apple's iPhone, the company announced at today's WWDC event.

Wait--Netflix movies and TV shows on your teensy iPhone? Don't tell David Lynch. Don't tell your cell phone provider, either. With monthly "fair access policy" transfer caps snarling cellular plans, the success of a bandwidth-gobbling streaming video service seems less than assured.

Then again, word is the iPhone interface won't cost a penny extra for existing Netflix users. You'll be able to stream anything available through Netflix Watch Instantly, poke around in Netflix's video database, organize your viewing queue, and--best of all--start then stop a video on your TV and pick up where you left off on your iPhone (the reverse holds true, presumably).

When? This summer, says Netflix CEO Reed Hastings.

Ipod and Netflix = Phoneflix

This new free application Phoneflix I downloaded makes it convenient to manage my netflix queue. No, I still can't watch streaming netflix movies yet on my Ipod Touch, but I am sure it will eventually happen.

I found a video of the app on a different device but it works identical. Funny, the youtube video is OK, but the guy needs to sound more normal than a robot.

Learning more about what my 1st apple ipod touch can do

I literally use my 1st apple ipod touch everyday multiple times of the day. Surprisingly enough I use it most now as an mp3 player which is what it initially started out as to be. My wife downloaded a great 1 hour meditation song for me that I use to fall asleep to. It is some slow melody with rain noise in the background. We got it free from Amazon with their free 3 mp3 offer for black Friday.

I actually like to use my ipod touch to browse my netflix queue and wish I could play movies on it. I looked it up on the Internet to see if they have plans to enable the devise, and I guess rumor has it that it will one day. The main problem is the operating system and platform won't support it yet.

While doing this search I did find this other site to help me get more knowledgeable about my gadget. Check it out and I hope you find if useful too.
