Youku Client to Ship in Nokia, Sony-Ericsson Handsets

CCID, 10/14/09

China video sharing site Youku has officially announced its partnership with Nokia and Sony-Ericsson, with Youku video clients to be pre-installed on new handsets produced by the two manufacturers. The content available to the Youku mobile client will be identical to the content available to PC users. Mobile client users will be able to browse, categorize, and search for videos. In the future the mobile client will also provide sharing, rating, and video upload functionality. Youku CTO Leo Yao says that development of a Youku client for the iPhone has already been completed.

An updated version of the Youku 3G site (3g.youku.com) will also come online at the end of October. The updated version will continue to support mobile-formatted user generated content, but will also add an arts and entertainment channel and interactive features.
