Fox News reported by Treo Mobile Telephone

| | Comments (0)
One of the biggest news stories in the world this week was the crash of a small plane into a New York appartment building.    Fox News's  Scott Wilder reported the story live using his Treo mobile telephone.     While Viewer submitted images have become acceptable and  fairly common place over the last 18 months this is another major change in the way the news is reported as it was a reporter using the hand-held technology, as opposed to a member of the public.

As mobile video technology continues to improve and participatory media and 'behind the curtain' experiences increase, could it be possible that some of the future factual, documentary and even drama productions will be filmed by the general public on their mobile telephones?
