Billboard has learned that rock band the Presidents of the United States of America shot its latest video using only mobile phone cameras.

The video for the track "Some Postman," culled from the band's last studio album, "Love Everybody," was filmed in Seattle in just one day using a variety of Sony-Ericsson mobile video phones.

Director Grant Marshall of Film Headquarters said he had spent 18 months looking for a band willing to go along with the mobile-only film concept.

The band currently is playing limited U.S. dates and is planning an Australian tour in October.

The first video shot by mobile phone was actually by a Norwegian singer by the name of Thom Hell. His video for his single 'Why Do I Feel' was made in October 2004.

The only information about it is in Norwegian: http://www.fedrelandsvennen.no/kulturpuls/article237877.ece

And the video can be seen here: http://www.moland.no/director[....]&pos=11&id=71&film_id=1&play=1
