Docomo N2xxx has i-motion which isn't streamed, just downloaded clips. =
Hence no decent duration. The P2xxx allows the p2p video conferencing =
thru 324M, and Mpeg4 can be squeezed thru this to deliver server =
streamed content.

Vector graphics is making use of the bandwidth better and pushing back =
the need for video. HI corp has a flash player, Faith has some nice =
animation extensions, SVG is getting traction.
