Treemo launched a well built mobile-focused social network. I tried Treemo and it works well, if you excuse the delivery of Video clips to mobile devices via MMS vs.¬†via streaming. I personally don’t find a 6 second truncated video clip very entertaining, and I am still looking for the streaming options to be supported. Right now, the major holdback is with operators open infrastructure, or lack there of, but the evidence from DocoMo, Japan clearly supports this direction.

From a pure multimedia perspective the mobile phone is the only device that combines multimedia recording and transmission in the same box. Sure, there are cameras/camcorders with WLAN, but considering what you snap or record is likely not in the proximity of a WLAN hot spot, it can't really compare. With a phone you can also easier text tag the photo or video.
