Joost gave me a few more beta invites and I have one left. Now that CBS has signed on to provide content (like CSI) to Joost, this should result in even more variety than what’s currently available. Who wants the last invite?

Keep in mind the the system requirements. I don’t want to hear any complaining when you realize that Joost won’t work on your computer after I’ve given you an invite…Barry! 😉

Windows

• Pentium 4 processor, 1GHz
• A modern video card with DirectX support and at least 32MB of VRAM
• At least 512MB of RAM
• 500MB of available disk space

Mac

• Any Intel-based Mac
• At least 512MB of RAM
• 500MB of available disk space

Linux

• Sorry, nothing available for you and it’ll run like ass in Xen or VMware 🙁

I’ve been informed that I have 2 invites to the Joost beta and they expire tomorrow. If any one who has a capable computer would like an invite, let me know. You can learn all about Joost, an IPTV app/system, from its F.A.Q.. In my experience, the client was pretty good and streaming was smooth on my connection. I’m not into most of the content that’s there right now, but some of it is decent. The beta is free, so what do you have to lose, right? Here are the minimum system requirements of the Joost client:

Windows

• Pentium 4 processor, 1GHz
• A modern video card with DirectX support and at least 32MB of VRAM
• At least 512MB of RAM
• 500MB of available disk space

Mac

• Any Intel-based Mac
• At least 512MB of RAM
• 500MB of available disk space

Linux

• You’re shit out of luck, and running it in a virtual machine would suck.

If your computer meets the requirements and you want an invite, let me know before tomorrow (March 22, 2007) prior to 2PM Eastern Daylight Time.
