Does The Iphone Support 3GPP ?

3GPP Mobile Surveillance
Support for 3GPP Mobile Surveillance1 allows you to view a live video feed from your compatible Internet-ready mobile phone with a 3GPP player installed. This extends your monitoring capability without requiring the use of a computer, allowing you to check your camera’s video feed while on-the-go.

The iPhone will play .3gp files, yes. .3gp is the file format defined by 3GPP. That format is handled by Quicktime (which is the only browser plug-in for video on the iPhone). (As a side note, iMovie '08 can export movies as .3gp files (using the "Tiny" export setting).

Whether or not you need a specific app to play the feed depends on the source. If a web address is used to access the feed, it will work on the iPhone.

Thanks for the quick reply. We have a baby on the way and are shopping video cameras that run over IP.

Make sure it uses H.264 encoding. H.263 is not supported.
