For all those who were searching for an easy way to watch Apple's movie trailers right on tablet (apple.com/trailers (http://apple.com/trailers)), there's an old method based on Yahoo Pipes (http://yahoo.com/pipes/) mashup web application.
You may get an RSS feed from this page (http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.info?_id=Dni_qKdz3BG7k3q1jUnRlg) which contains links to a movie's page on Apple site, film's description and - the most important part;) - the link to its trailer in Ipod format as enclosure, that's played back by default Media player beautifully (however not Mplayer). Just go to the page with your tablet browser and send the RSS to feed reader. Links to trailers are under each item's description, and they are saveable.

Oh my god!!

I bookmarked this feed and downloaded the hulk trailer and played it.

It started playing and suddenly my n800 became unresponsive and the screen became like a black curtain descending from left to right!!

I was **** scared and thought maybe apple sent some bot to destroy my tablet.

The screen was black and nothing happened.

I took of the battery and rebooted.


Thank god it was okay. i became adventurous and played the same video again. This time it played okay except for a white line on the bottom of the screen and frame dropping in high intensity scenes.

thanks for the link
