I don't think there will be enough bandwidth for video streaming using 
the verizon phone. Can of course do an audio stream with that. There is 
also the next generation broadband mobile being rolled out now, I don't 
know what the status of that is in LA (need to do some research). I just 
passed through Seoul where you can now see people walking around on the 
street talking to each other with full motion video on their cell 
screens... Even though that tech is not available (or nowhere near 
widespread) in the US yet, we should start planning already for the 
future of live IMC video broadcasts direct from next gen cell phones ...
