There's been an announcement of winners... http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNew...=Entertainment.

Harley Hay of Red Deer, Alta., took the top prize at the inaugural Palm Mobifest: Canada's Mobile Film Festival honouring films that were shot and created for a mobile phone, smart-phone or other handheld device.

Hay's 59-second film, Regurgitation, was named best of the festival and earned him a mobile movie production package valued at $1,500.

The best Canadian mobile film was Swings/Sits, by Michael Tung of Toronto; and the best film caught on Treo was The Trio, by Luciano Leraci of Toronto.

...Finalist films can be viewed at www.mobifest.ca.
