Spoofing the iPhone UA in Firefox results in the CNN mobile content being served. Using the mobile site there is no way to watch videos on the site. The site serves an ad before the video plays and then *I think* sends a callback to start the video. As Firefox kicks out to the standalone video player the callback is never sent and the video never plays. Note that the ad video does download and play correctly.
Er, never mind. Seems that he whole video is downloaded. The ad is the beginning of the video. Scrolling past the ad does reveal the content.
