If yes, then you have the usual no-direct-IP and no-DMZ problem.<br /> Try it again in another Wi-Fi network OR through a mobile phone connection.</p> pubDate Sun, 15 Jul 2007 01:00:21 -0500 dc:creator Werner Ruotsalainen guid false comment 5608 at http://www.smartphonemag.com/cms http://www.smartphonemag.com/cms/blog/9/the-only-real-guide-playing-back-mobile-youtube-videos#comment-5604 <p>Yup, it seems these three models (and, in addition, the PPC-6700) have some missing components available on (most?) other models. I'll let you know if I find a solution to these problems.</p> pubDate Wed, 27 Jun 2007 09:29:27 -0500 dc:creator Werner Ruotsalainen guid false comment 5604 at http://www.smartphonemag.com/cms
