VuClip claims that it can convert any video type into a format compatible with any video-enabled mobile phone, in 20 seconds or less.While I confess that I'm only going to want to use VuClip if I'm stranded at JFK and I've got excellent reception and I've read the Times and the Journal back and forth, I am impressed with their effort to distribute more video to more people, for free. For example, the company claims to allow any web-enabled phone to view YouTube videos. YouTube videos, like most online videos, are encoded in Flash, and few phones are Flash enabled.
For those of us who are suspect of the idea that video-on-mobile phones will be a big market, it wasn't too long ago that TV-on-the-computer seemed like an awkward and unpopular set up.
