Netflix app for iPhone and iPod Touch launched — from thenextweb.com by Jeff Cormier
Fans of Netflix with an iPhone and/or iPod Touch, the time has come. As promised at the unveiling of iPhone 4 in June, Netflix has lauched their app for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Get the free app here.
Netflix has been available on the iPad since its launch, and is one of my favorite apps as an iPad owner. The iPhone and iPod Touch version is equally as grand, albeit on a smaller screen.

From DSC:
Let’s picture that you are a 3-4 year old…and your parents get you one of these iPads. You begin to learn to read like this using an app like QBook. You grow up knowing this type of technology exists and you use gadgets like this all the time. They keep you engaged…they give you control of the content, pacing, etc.
Now fast forward to college. You’ll quickly see why I preach the dangers of the status quo.

If educational publishers would publish content to be iPad ready, can you imagine the power of this type of an interface/”chalkboard of the future” in a professor’s hands? He/she could:
- Intuitively and efficiently locate an item
- Drag it over to the main viewing are
- Enlarge a table of data and then annotate it
- Quickly shrink a graphic and move it to the side of the screen after discussing it
- Annotate a photo or a website
- Send the captured image of what he/she had been displaying and working on to devices that can “hear” that signal
- Etc. etc. etc.
