YouTube video conversion with ByWiFi

The spate of YouTube players for Symbian and Windows Mobile as well as the new official Java client may leave owners of older, less capable mobiles feeling a bit left out.

Ne asteptam deci la o invazie de softuri homebrew in zilele urmatoare, care vor incarca serviciul oferit de Apple, generand cu siguranta reactii la varful companiei, sau poate chiar inchiderea temporara a serviciului.
