Media Upload from iPhone/ iPad ?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Any way that videos/ photos on an iPhone/ iPad could be uploaded?

As mobile becomes bigger and bigger in the industry and BP themes also go 
mobile it would be awesome to easily upload on the fly through mobile devices.

Facebook/ Twitter etc allow you to do this.

All sites would use this.

Unfortunately the iPhone and iPad are closed platforms, and Apple has 
DELIBERATELY REMOVED upload functionality from their web browsers. 

The only way to upload content from Apple's mobile platforms is to write an 
iPhone/iPad app specifically to do it, and then make every user that visits 
your website download the app. That's not going to happen.

Don't waste your time developing things for the iPhone and iPad. Apple has less 
than 16% of the smartphone market 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Smartphone_share_current.png and because 
other manufacturers now have better, cheaper, products that run any software 
the owner wants, that market share is only going to decrease over time.

As for other mobile platforms, BP-Media *already supports* Android, Symbian, 
and RIM ...no app required. :) 

^F^

Thanks so much for the info! It really is appreciated, I had no idea Apple were 
so cagey about stuff on their devices.

As long as BP Media is supported by other mobile devices, that will do for me!
