iPhone Apps Must Adapt To AT&T's Network

We already know that AT&T and Apple have allowed iPhone apps to stream video over 3G, but it seems that there is a condition to that. The video app needs to be able to provide a low quality video stream to downgrade to when the going gets tough (i.e. the network is congested). With that in mind, the apps will need to be able to adapt to network conditions, and when the carrier’s network is having issues, it should be intelligent enough to switch to a less bandwidth intensive stream. Of course, consumers would much rather AT&T just figure out a way to provide enough bandwidth so that video streaming won’t be an issue, but until things get better, this is probably the way things are going to be, huh?
