To add one more festival all you need to do
is visit the filmfest's own website with Mobile Safari and touch the "Download to your
iPhone" icon. iPod Touch owners are welcome, too, but that just didn't fit onto the
badge.
After a few seconds the entire festival sits right inside your pocket - movie stills are pulled in subsequently and take a bit longer depending on how many movies the festival features and how well the images are prepared for low bandwidth access.
So check out this App and enjoy the movies!
