WiFi & YouTube All Around

By the end of the year, you will be able to upload and view YouTube videos on LG phones. It sounds like they are working complete integration, so you’ll be able to shoot a video with your phone and upload it directly to YouTube. Those new phone models will come with Google services including Google Maps, search and Gmail pre-installed. YouTube launched a mobile-specific version of the site earlier this year; Helio then announced it was jumping on the bandwagon as well, with the new Up for the Ocean which will allow uploading to YouTube with two clicks.

And the FCC has just approved a new BlackBerry – the first to integrate cellular services and WiFi in the same device, which sounds like another device that hit the market recently. It doesn’t look as streamlined as the Curve, but I can imagine a lot of business users of the BlackBerry being quite happy to get their hands on one. We’ll certainly have more on this as news develops.
