watch TV on a 7250... possible???

[Thanh]

Hello
AIS offers a service here in Thailand, which let users of a 3650 and 7250 watch the channels 3, 5, 7, 11 and ITV on their mobile phones via GPRS. Is this sort of "streaming video"? When trying to access that service with a 7250, it comes up with "Sorry, your phone model is not supported". Is there any way to receive streaming video (or whatever it is) on this phone? Any application? I tried with this Oplayer thingy, but that downloads only "preset" videos of which most don't work, or the application keeps hanging ("Application error").
Thanks for your help....
Kind regards

PS how about MMS that contain a short video clip, taken with a 3650... can a 7250 receive and play those? Haven't tested it yet, lack of a 3650

Hi again
Thank you guys for replying... one thing got me confused: Isn't Oplayo an application, a program? It is definitely NOT a game, and it DOES download video clips over GPRS...... i found out (via the net) that in europe, specific germany, Oplayo seems to be the big hit with several companies providing video clips as a "pay-per-view" download via Oplayo, they even have a WAP-push to get Oplayo on the phones. I have successfully installed it on my BF's 7250, it works (crashy, but works!) but of course here in hailand i have no way of tapping those german pay-per-view services (they're billed via the phone bills). The service here in Thailand looks just too similar, as it is NOT the entire TV program which is broadcasted, but "clips" such as the news or movie trailers.
Besides, also installed on that same phone is a web-viewer which allows access to "regular" www-sites, like IE or netscape. It is hampered by a too low "Heap-memory" in the phone (200 KB only) but else it works fine, too, also using GPRS. In my opinion, both those apps are "real" programs.... or am i wrong?
Please advice........
Kind regards....

well i downloaded the demo, and it worked fine for ME clips were short and slow....

its not really worth it...........nothing special, just like a slide show, and its expensive over GPRS too...
