Nokia's S60.com has announced that all the S60 3rd edition N and Eseries smartphones from Nokia will feature the MPEG-4 AVC codec. So the full list of products reads: N71, N80, N91, N92, E60, E61 and E70. Also known as H.264, this is the video standard for the next few years and a version of it is used in consumer Blu-Ray and HD-DVD formats.

Read on in the full article.

Here's hoping Sony Ericsson take note and include h.264 in their UIQ3 phones such as the W950i! A phone with 4Gb is surely crying out to support the best possible quality video codec's available. Fingers crossed!
