I'm really excited about this one, after tweaking my java code for the last serveral hours I'm able to get my bridge application to work with the iphone and either the twonkyvision or elagoto eyeconnect media servers. The bridge is a custom server application I wrote for laptops and eyeconnect and twonkyvision are two very popular low cost upnp servers.

My mediabridge is a proxy server that can run anywhere on your network and translates upnp commands into formated web pages, for video and soon for music and playlists. the eyeconnect media server supports itunes playlists. so in theory something might be doable on the Iphone.

I was able to stream an entire converted 2 hour dvd to my 4gb Iphone. It streams progressively and plays flawlessly.

Unfortunately since I have a real job its going to take me at least a week before I post an alpha on my source forge page.

Here's a screenshot from iphoney, does anyone know anyway to get a screen capture from the phone.
