Its a beta people :/

So, you guys say ya wanna watch full TV episodes but Hulu doesn't work? Well, Lady Droid to the rescuuuuueeee! Go to CastTV.com and enjoy! Not all videos may work but seems the majority do and the content is very similar to Hulu. All sorts of popular TV shows, the latest episodes, and quality is good. Just watched a few minutes of Legend of the Seeker and now I'm loving my Droid even more than ever!

EAT THAT, IPHONE!

Yea, that's awesome! So, tell me, how are you fast forwarding in case you were like 20 minutes in and you accidentally hit the back/home button and you had to start the episode all over?!

Unfortunately this is the one big thing missing as far as playback: no rewind or fast-forward capability. But of course this is just a beta and they'll continue improving on it, so hopefully they'll add that in the near future.

Wish it worked with Tversity streaming asf from my home server (Sirius)
Thought it had a shot with iPhone rendering, but nope...

Still getting prompted to download flash player...not to fast either.

I used it all night. I had no problems with Flash and it's faster then the standard browser. I had no FC issues. Everything worked just fine.

 

[DessoThumbs]

I'm w/ hookbill; I LIKE IT. It's got a spot on my homescreen. 'nuff said.

Pretty nice. I like the way a video pops out saying that its available for viewing. It is still choppy but overall so far i would like to see how this develops. Very nice.
Thanks guys.

Very cool. Just watched an episode of Modern Family. Wish they had more classic shows like The Odd Couple.

Aahh, I had hopes for RadioTime website. Almost....almost....

ESPN worked tho, Yahoo movies too.

 

[mountaineerndixie]

I'm having problems. I just get a "Web Page Not Available" message page for every site I try to go to. It's like it doesn't even see an online connection. I have tried wifi and data.

Anyone else having this issue?

I agree and Ive made it my default browser. I just hope in future releases they work on the smoothness and speed of the zooming, mainly pinch to zoom.
