LOL at iPod Touch vs Storm Video Quality
Tonight I decided to compare the image quality of some online videos. Since I know that the iPod Touch has an advantage over any BB when it comes to YouTube videos, I decided to level the playing field a bit and make the test more even. So, I went to scifi.com on both of them and played some of the BSG videos. I couldn't believe my eyes, the Storm with OS .113 looked much nicer then the iPod Touch did. The colors were better and the pixels were also smaller and smoother (no jaggies). Anyway, the funny part of it is that the iPod was on wifi and I actually went to view the videos on it first, then decided to compare. What surprised me is that I was thinking to myself... Man, this thing is quick on wifi bringing up the pages. Well, I had to navigate the same site on my Storm (no, the site wasn't cached, I clear my cache after each browsing session) and it was just as fast rendering the mobile scifi site. Granted, it's not a large site, but still... it's just as fast on EVDO RevA as it is on wifi.
Anyhoo, the thing that surprised me the most was the video quality. I got full screen video (edge to edge) on the Storm, but slightly cropped on the iPod Touch. The video did look better on the Storm though... I was surprised because I could have sword that when I used to watch videos on that site before, they used to be a little more grainy.
Thought I'd share...
Storm, YouTube, and KeepVid
Getting excellent videos and saving them on my Storm using KeepVid. Image quality is excellent.... :cool: Doctor Neutron
