D&AD : Using iPlayer on other devices.

"One of the changes we are seeing with slates is this whole area of content consumption. People are enjoying more and more of the content coming from the web. The real challenge being is there really arnt good consumption design devices, all devices today have keyboards which were really designed for input but there a large population who really just want to consume whether it be video,text,audio" - Phil McKinney - CTO, Hewlett Packard . BBC Click CES Special Part 1.

This quote from the Phil McKinney made me realise that when people are consuming content from the BBC iPlayer they dont always want to sit infront of a computer. This added with the fact that 8% of all requests for iPlayer content come from games consoles it is a must that I include these in my final outcome.
