A British college student claims to bring out what could be considered as the first Bittorrent client for Mobile phones.

ESATO NEWS

The software, called WizBit, relies on the Bram Cohen “hellish" creation and uses 3G network to transfer big files via mobile phones.

David Hulbert,the project developer, warns that the current WizBit “is an unfinished version and will not fully work yet." But he double-crosses finger to get the first major release done by July 7, 2006.

Should Hollywood have to worry? No, at least not now. It would be horribly expensive to use the cellphone to download ‘Da Vinci Code‘ for instance. And still unaffordable for everyone to get an episode of ‘24‘ by this way.

1. Kinda very... very expensive
2. I think operators can easely see you using the network and block your sim?

Yes it'll surely have to be legit. But only if you download from the operator,otherwise i think it could be like it's on the net now-no1 gives a damn,at least here.

3 Programs like azureus use ALOT of memory (not harddisk space but that other one), i doubt phones have enough memory for that? as the K750i only has 1MB of it.
