Sounds fantastic :)

Out of curiosity - what formats are supported? Any news on 3G video? I
remember some time ago there was some weird application level support.
Does chan_mobile supports video too? Would it be possible to have 3G
adapter and interact with it?

This just brings Asterisk to new level :)
