Hulu no longer working with Skyfire, E71x users should try Cellular Video

One of the only reasons I have been using the Skyfire browser on my E71x was to get to Hulu content. According to WM Experts Hulu is now blocking Skyfire on both Windows Mobile and S60 devices. I don’t have my E71x to try it out, but have read of others on Twitter experiencing the same issue. If you do have an E71x though don’t forget that you can use the AT&T Cellular Video service for free with your data plan. After I discovered this was free I found I used this more than Hulu anyways since the video is optimized for the E71x and works more reliably.

I just tried it this morning and it seems to work fine on my WIFI. Perhaps this only happens over the 3G network?

Same issues on my E71x. My understanding was that At&t only provided video clips and not complete episodes, I’ll have to check it out.

At least there’s You Tube http://nokia-e71.net/category/the-nokia-e71x/
