Poll: Will You Watch A Movie On Your iPhone?

By Allie Townsend | @Allie_Townsend | June 7, 2010 | +

Today, we hung on Steve Jobs’ every word until we got confirmation of what we were suspecting: iPhone 4!

(More on Techland: Apple’s New iPhone 4: The Specs Sheet)

Not only is it smaller, features multitasking and a front-facing camera, but just like the iPad, it’s got Netflix streaming capability. Pretty cool? Roger Ebert says not so fast. Earlier today, the Pulitzer Prize winning film critic tweeted his apprehension to watching a movie via a 3.5-in screen: “I will never, ever watch a movie on my iPhone. Nor will I read a book on my thumbnail.”

So, what say you, readers? Will you make use of the iPhone’s new Netflix abilities?

    Ebert lost relevance a long time ago. Anyway I’m definitely NOT going to even buy this slight update to the iPhone line. Android all the way!

    I don’t know about the rest of the world, but I already watch movies on my Ipod touch… soooo I’m a little confused? Proof that Ebert is irrelevant at best and has no taste whatsoever at worst.

    I’ll watch a movie, but not stream one with the new data plans.

    A smaller screen may be as a slight cumbrance to some, but if it’s just me, I’ll use it. The iPad will still be better for movie watching in my opinion.

    Too small (even if the screen is ‘new and improved’). I still dig a decent size TV to enjoy a movie. If you’re a marketing all-star (like those at Apple), help a startup out.. http://bit.ly/cjMdrZ
