Joost is loosed on the iPhone. If only it worked…
VentureBeat — Joost, the one mega-hyped online video startup, has just launched a free application for the iPhone to allow for mobile access to its videos. With a nice, clear interface, this app could be a winner — if it can get over the performance issues currently plaguing it. The app gives you access to more than 46,000 videos ranging from popular movies (like Men in Black) to music videos (I see a lot of Beyonce), to television shows (Late Night with David Letterman seems popular). Unfortunately, I can’t get a single video to load. I’ve tried nearly two dozen videos across the app now and each one attempts to load before ...

Beyond YouTube: 10 Top iPhone Video Apps
Mashable! — Since its debut in 2007, iPhone owners have been capable of consuming video in two ways: via iPod software as well as a YouTube application. And these options presumably remain the exclusive utilities employed for viewing clips. But they are other methods available now. The launch of the App Store this summer enticed a number of third-party developers to make use of the iPhone’s video playback capabilities. The Web-based television outfit Joost [iTunes] is the latest to joint the fray. Naturally, we thought it’d be fitting to see what’s what in that part of the iPhone market as a whole. Here are ten ...

Joost Puts Internet Video On Your iPhone
Podcasting News — Joost has released a new app (App Store link) that brings the social video site to the iPhone.  The app lets you find/watch videos in several ways: Browsing by category Select “most popular” videos Watch our favorites  Search for a specific video While the idea behind this is great, the app only works on WiFi connections, and even with that the video is a bit jittery.  If they could get decent quality streaming going over 3G, this could be something big. Because of the WiFi dependency, the Joost iPhone app is of limited usefulness.

Joost Video Streaming iPhone App Makes Us Dream of Hulu [IPhone Apps]
Gizmodo — ... It's kind of crashy, could use a better navigation UI and takes too long for movie streams to get going (and then when they do it's kind of finicky) but we definitely appreciate being to stream The Fifth Element over Wi-Fi in decent quality, when it actually gets going. More than anything though, it just makes us soak our pillow with even more drool dreaming of a Hulu app. [iTunes via ...

Joost hits the iPhone, Hulu and Sling to follow?
9 to 5 Mac - Apple Intelligence — Joost isn't brimming with fantastic content, though there are some interesting titles for sure.  However, it is now on the iPhone (iTunes Link).  Interestingly it works only over Wifi.  While this is a nice little application, it is most important because it means that slightly more exciting applications like Hulu and Slingplayer are both possible.    This class of media broadcaster seems like a great pick for the iPod touch - since AT&T isn't letting the video stream to be played over 3G.  Early reports day it is more than slightly ...

Joost Arrives On The iPhone
GadgetReview — There’s no doubt that Joost turned out to be a bit of a flop when it comes to the whole IPTV thing.  Hulu on the other hand has become a massive success, and Netflix streaming on my computer or Xbox 360 gets me so excited I can hardly contain myself.  So what’s left for Joost? The iPhone of course.  Yup, they’ve released an iPhone app that’ll allow streaming video over WiFi.  I downloaded, installed and was once again let down.  I can hardly get a video playing and when I due it jumps around, drops sound or all together crashes. So why even talk about the Joost app for the iPhone if it sucks so much?  Simply because it ...

Mac|Life all RSS Feed — joost If you're jonesing for more videos on the iPhone, you don't have to look any further than the new Joost App Store app . Joost doesn't have Hulu's dense library of videos, and it only works with Wi-Fi. But, we're watching Starship Troopers on our iPhones right now, and we're getting ready to watch the Fifth Element .

Joost iPhone App: A Bit Disappointing [TheAppleBlog]
GigaOM Network — Personally, I can’t get enough of the new podcast features rolled out in the iPhone/iPod touch 2.2 firmware update. They’re now an indispensable part of my daily commuting. That’s why I was looking forward to Joost for the iPhone (free). It seemed to have the potential to provide the same kind of time-killing power and more, because of its library of content, which includes popular film and television shows. The app comes with some caveats, however, and it remains to be seen whether those limitations will prevent the app from reaching its full potential. First strike, although it doesn’t affect users in the U.S., ...
