It's here - but not working right quite yet. I could not get a stream (any stream) to start playing. I figure I'll wait a day or so for the kinks to get worked out and then I can start watching non-stop episodes of Charlie's Angels and Cheaters!

Is this app the same as that Poptiq or whatever that homosexual Buck was advertising a while ago?

Not quite... If it's anything like the desktop version it's full movies and tv shows streaming. And pretty decent ones at that!

I'm really surprised too, but I guess it doesn't do anything that goes against Apple or coincides with anything Apple has already.

Unless I'm wrong...

Don't see this one getting pulled. Google supports it, and appearently if you're on the board at Apple, you can do anything. Whats next, Al Gore gonna release an Inconvientient Truth app. (loved the book btw)

Joost is by the same people from Skype and eBay, if i'm not mistaken.

This is awesome. Vsnax I couldn't get into that much. Popstiq sucks.

No the picks and popular streams didn't work for me but when I browse it works great. It actually gives you a short description so you can decide if you might want to watch the clip. What a novel idea (well the other ones didn't so that makes it a novel idea...hehe). All these are freely available short video clips on various internet sites around the web. But who wants to visit hundreds of sites and slash their way through bombardments of ads to view tiny clips when it's all quickly categorized and navigatable from your fingertips.

Just go to http://www.hulu.com see which Movies they have then search on joost and get your movie. For example Gattaca and start watching. Never thought we'd see the day this would happen. Hulu on the iphone.
