COMMENTARY: Please wake me when mobile video is real

I AM A SUCKER. Invariably during the various trade shows I or others from Cartt.ca attend, be it the NCTA, NAB, IPTV, SCTE, Banff, or this week’s CTAM, there’s a session that promises we’re going to be presented with some kind of progress on the mobile video front. And every time I fall for it. I attend the session hoping to hear some kind of concrete direction we may be heading when it comes to taking my video with me on a Blackberry or an iPhone or an Instinct or somesuch. And every time I come away disappointed. Forgive me...
