It's one we are exploring seriously. OTOY has a system for streaming flash, Java and x86 apps very efficiently through the server side system that also handles our 3D content. In one of the OTOY video clips on TC, you will see MS windows paint exe streaming in with full interactivity on a wall. In addition to running on any 3D surface in OTOY, this app could just as easily stream to a regular Flash, Java or HTML page element. Simpler 2D content like Flash is really easy to do this with (much less bandwidth than 3D viewports), and has lots of uses. For example, we have been able to get flash 9 content working on the iPhone's Safari browser 'automatically'. Jules Urbach OTOY Hi Alex,
