Comments on: Helio brightens its YouTube offering

The YouTube service on the mobile carrier's high-end Ocean handset is beefed up to allow GPS geotagging and easy uploads straight from the phone.

Convince the public??

I am not so sure that its convincing people that they have a good product. They need to be on the street letting people see their phones. I can't name any where in the area (DC) that has these phones out. People want to touch and hold.

mobile blogging

I like the upload to youtube feature -- but this also works with other services -
and I use it with http://www.blipback.com

Once I record a video - I hit a few buttons and kapow - it arrives into my own
widget that I can place on any of my sites. It lets me keep a mobile blog while
Im out - the Helio is the only phone that handles this very nicely so far.

Helio... Me... Want...

God, I want one of these things. They need to make a few different models of it (i.e. one that's more cost effective) kinda like T-Mobile did with the SidekickiD. Then I would buy one.

Helio Ocean's YouTube capability really puts it over the top in regards to the media offering. This allows the user to have media functionality out of the box and eliminates the need to get subscription based services such as SprintTV or VCast.
