NBC’s mobile portal provides streaming video (including full episodes of some shows) on both Windows Mobile devices and the iPhone (and iPod touch). Head over to the mobile NBC website to see the site and videos.

You’ll need to be patient with the video streams even when using a wireless LAN. It took about 45 seconds for it to buffer on my HTC TyTN. Then, the audio stream started without video for another 10 seconds or so. But try it out and let me know how it works for you on your Windows Mobile device of choice.

Gameloft releases Heroes: The Mobile Game

Gameloft has announced the release of a mobile game based on the hit NBC show Heroes.

Originally announced in March, Heroes: The Mobile Game follows the events of season one of the show, but also offers an exclusive spoiler from season two that will not be revealed to fans until later in the season–although revealing this secret is not necessary for completing the game. The game itself was written in collaboration with the show’s writers and allows gamers to experience the thrill of discovering and exploring the strange power thrust on a group of otherwise normal people. Gamers will take control of Hiro, Niki, or Peter from the show, as well as interact with other well-known characters.

“With such a massive fan-base, we knew it was critical to work closely with the writers and producers of the television series to develop a game that matched the dynamic atmosphere,” said Gonzague de Vallois, senior vice president of publishing at Gameloft. “Surpassing expectations is what we aimed for and achieved with the game, so we are very happy with the end result and look forward to fans enjoying it worldwide.”

The game is available now through most U.S. carriers.
