Already offering video to your TV and computer, EPIX (http://hd.engadget.com/tag/epix) is ready to unveil the third part of its "Big On Any Screen" service when it demonstrates a mobile version of the channel today at MWC 2010. It's teamed up with Adobe and the Open Screen Project (http://mobile.engadget.com/tag/openscreenproject/) for a Flash Player 10.1 implementation that it claims offers "highest mobile viewing quality available on mobile devices today," if it can match up with the Flash player available on PCs (http://hd.engadget.com/2009/06/08/epix-hd-720p-movie-streaming-service-eyes-on/)then it has a chance. The ability to pause a movie on the TV or PC and pick up later on your handheld is in the works as well. No word on where we'll see this launch or if your cell carrier will need to be tied to your TV service for access, but we'd figure Verizon's VCast (http://hd.engadget.com/2009/07/28/verizon-to-offer-epix-movie-channel-streaming-service-on-fios/) will be near the top of the list.EPIX brings movie streaming to mobiles courtesy of Adobe's Open Screen Project (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/15/epix-brings-movie-streaming-to-mobiles-courtesy-of-adobes-open/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Mon, 15 Feb 2010 06:38:00 EST.
