Joost Video Streaming iPhone App Makes Us Dream of Hulu [IPhone Apps]
Gizmodo — ... Men in Black and Starship Troopers for free over Wi-Fi, is actually kind of exciting. It's kind of crashy, could use a better navigation UI and takes too long for movie streams to get going (and then when they do it's kind of finicky) but we definitely appreciate being to stream The Fifth Element over Wi-Fi in decent quality, when it actually gets going.

GigaOM Network — ... Ooyala looks great on the PC, and has some interesting clickable advertising and analytics technology, but unlike some of the white-label video competition it doesn’t offer full-fledged mobile or TV extensions, which seems like an opportunity for Joost to rise above. Joost does already have its own iPhone app. Ooyala makes use of Adobe AIR and also Amazon’s web services, whose startup competition it won in 2007. Its existing customers include Bebo and TV Guide. ...
