2. Does On The Go Studio Content work with my phone/carrier?

Phones. Phones that play videos and have memory cards can play content from OnTheGoStudio.com. See this table for the type of file format for your phone and memory card combination and content type.

Phones without memory cards that are Multi-media enabled and have some form of Web Browsing can receive content via over the air downloads.

Our system works best on Sprint and Cingular networks but we are working to provide OTA downloads to all carriers in the U.S. and Internationally.

Carriers. Sprint, Cingular and T- Mobile are stongly supporting OTA downloads to their phones. Verizon is slowly coming around to the concept.
