I see it from the point of view that you can access content quickly but apart from that downloading (especially if done in the background) is far superior. The ability to watch the program whenever you want regardless of whether you have a signal/WiFi router around, not liable to skipping/stopping unless there's a problem with the hardware. The only limitation really is space on the device but a 45 min show takes up about 350mb at 700x400 and that number could be reduced drastically for much smaller screens and resolutions.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gnormie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 26th 2009 5:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on RIM to fire up mobile TV service for BlackBerry devices?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/rim-to-fire-up-mobile-tv-service-for-blackberry-devices/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/rim-to-fire-up-mobile-tv-service-for-blackberry-devices/</guid><description><![CDATA[Downloading is far superior in places like NYC where you're underground for big stretches on subways, where it's boring except for the really hot girls :) ... you could then watch the downloaded content without needing to be connected to the network... since underground, you don't yet have network access.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kwikit]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 26th 2009 9:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on RIM to fire up mobile TV service for BlackBerry devices?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/rim-to-fire-up-mobile-tv-service-for-blackberry-devices/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/rim-to-fire-up-mobile-tv-service-for-blackberry-devices/</guid><description><![CDATA["a diminutive, low-res screen?"<br><br>Since when are the new blackberry's low-res?
