I-play, the mobile entertainment company, and Universal Studios today announced the new streaming video service “Movie Minutes”, offering the most memorable scenes from Universal’s catalog of blockbuster movies to North American fans. The new service will run using I-play’s proprietary mobile video application “I-player”, and will allow consumers to search for their favorite video clips by theme, genre or tag.
“People love to talk about, reminisce over, and imitate their favorite moments from film and television. Now those same fans can have clips from Universal’s rich film and TV library anywhere they go, anytime they want them,” Jeremy Laws, Senior Vice President, Universal Mobile Entertainment commented.
The service is live on Sprint, Verizon, Rogers and Amp’d, and is due to be rolled out on other major US carriers imminently.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
