Default MobiTV Launches Windows Mobile Support

http://www.mobitv.com/products/prod...=windows_mobile

"MobiTV, Inc., the global leader in television and digital radio services for cellular, WiFi and broadband enabled devices, today announced the immediate availability of the MobiTV� service for Windows Mobile powered phones and devices. Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphones feature full-screen viewing, a home-like electronic programming guide and much more...Available on new and popular devices including the Sprint 6700, Cingular 2125, Motorola Q and Palm's Treo 700w, consumers of MobiTV on Windows Mobile powered devices can access a broad range of channels from top-tier content providers."



MobiTV offers a subscription service that enables access to a number of channels, ranging from MSNBC to A&E to a number of sports channels, all available for streaming now on your Pocket PC Phone. I may have the opportunity to review this service, and it certainly looks promising, especially for EVDO devices like the 6700 and the 700w.

I subscribed/installed yesterday and so far have had no problems using my T-Mobile MDA with Edge service. I haven't done intensive testing yet but will next week while traveling on vacation.

Sure, the Slingbox is a great option for many people. In my case, though, the cable tuner may be used in a different capacity at home when I want to watch it. I think it's great an increasing number of options are available for the mobile user.

yeah I understand that... I am lucky... I have 3 cable boxes in my place, so the one I am hooked to with my slingbox, no one is ever using. I guess I am lucky! 400 hundred channels on my 6700 at any time! Perfect!
