As if you needed more reasons to use your cellphone at the Sundance Film Festival, Verizon Wireless and the Sundance Channel have announced a deal to put some of the channel's short-form programming on Verizon's V Cast video service.

The programming includes daily festival updates, interview clips with Robert Redford and actor/filmmaker Crispin Glover, animated and live-action shorts, and segments from the channel's environmental series "Big Ideas for a Small Planet."

Just remember to turn off your cellphone when you're in the theater.
