According to unnamed executives familiar with the situation, Netflix is preparing to bring its "Watch Instantly" streaming service to the Nintendo Wii and the Apple iPhone/iPod Touch via Wi-Fi.
"Watch Instantly" allows Netflix subscribers to view over 12,000 movies and TV episodes, via the Xbox 360, LG Blu-ray players, TiVos, Sony Bravia HDTVs and many other devices. If Multichannel's report is accurate, the service could be heading to three new devices, and soon.
Important to note however, is that the iPhone/Touch app would most likely block the viewing of content over the 3G, due to AT&T's alleged throttling of bandwidth intense applications. So far, most bandwidth intensive video content apps have been relegated to Wi-Fi only.
