Outside of an initial load delay (which was seconds at the most), I have been able to listen to music, which uploaded and streamed completely end-to-end without interruption.
I have watched videos and movies (again over wifi) from 4:30 minutes through 20 minutes (got bored), but again without any choppiness or loading issues whatsoever.
Going from playlist to playlist, or from song to song, and back-and-forth between pages also has not resulted in any significant delays in either the loading of pages or the loading of the content behind those pages (although I suspect that a feature which allows you to turn off artwork would definitely increase the speed that pages load regardless).
Over the edge network, things are definitely different. Depending upon where you are on the network, you may get inconsistent results. In some places, I've been able to stream music and my songs loaded fairly quickly, but in others, it took a while.
That said, this application is best when over wifi, but passable (location dependent of course), over Edge.
All in all, I think that the iPhone plug-in is well worth the price of admission. Moreover, the DOT.TUNES application itself is a great deal especially since even without the iPhone plug-in, you can get at your music from wherever you are.
If the developer is reading any of these comments, I would suggest a feature which allows you to stream one song after another, and the ability to turn off artwork. Get those down, and I'd buy it again!

In addition, the Playlist menu on the iPhone simply will not display any selections. I just get searching spins. Artists and Albums work, however.
Right now, this software is all but useless to me.
Can anyone advise how to properly set up an AIrport configuration for this app to work? Maybe post it on the developer's site.

The interface is clean and straightforward, much like the iPod's UI. But there are a few bugs like the activation area for playing a song is minute to the actual area shown for the song (album cover, song title, song length area), calling songs "movies" when selecting to play (because QuickTime is the plugin that plays the song). "Buttons" for Add to Favorites/Delete from Favorites are distorted and indistinguishable. There is no playing of playlists meaning once you select a song in a playlist, Dot.iPhone only plays that song, not continuing to play other tunes in the list.
There are no settings available w/in Dot.iPhone such as an option to turn off artwork (which would greatly speed up listings & selections), no equalizer option, no Shuffle, or Ratings.
Still, at the end of the day, it does deliver your iTunes library to your iPhone w/out having to fill up the memory. It's just that at this stage Dot.iPhone is only a good start...it has a good ways to go before it becomes the blockbuster app that every iPhone user will want.

You can actually stream both your music AND videos. And not just over your local Wifi network, but over the EDGE network (which is what you use to get the internet on your iPhone).
Music streams great using the EDGE network. Video is a little choppy.
Also, the developers made DOT.TUNES free. It used to cost $30, but since it's required to connect the streaming of your iTunes library, they made it free. Killer cool!
Lastly, you can actually send other people the link to your music and THEY can listen to your iTunes library collections if you want.
