Joost on the iPhone: Luxuriate in its Deliciousness

Not much else to say, other than it is slick and delicious, and unfortuantely only available using Wi-Fi.  I’ll be honest.  I haven’t checked out Joost in months (years?), and they’ve boosted their line up considerably.  Full length movies?  Check.  Anime?  Check.  Music Videos?  Check.  Downsides?  Totally unconfirmed reports (i.e. me) suggest that it drains [...]

In Android vs. iPhone, Will It Be All About The Benjamins?

A Wish For An iPhone Comeuppance
