Okay i fully appreciate the captive audience thing, otherwise I'd be an iPhone owner, right? My main concern with specific regard to the BBC is that the iPlayer doesn't work (saw in another thread this is to do with the site not recognising the N900 as a mobile device and dishing out the wrong video format), while the iPhone is recognised, and video works well. My main point was that without a significant user base, subtle irritations like this will continue to happen.

Maybe we will be able to watch the World Cup via the browser - live feeds of Final Score work great. We can always rely on radio streams if not.

Edit: someone has found a workaround to get the iPlayer working. I enjoy workarounds - was my job for 10 years - but there is a limit to which I'll put up with it.
