Mobile TV will reach masses say Sony & Ericsson
24 November 2006 by axxxr Having co-operated successfully in mobile phone handsets Sony and Ericsson are eyeing what they expect will be a boom market enabling people to watch TV on mobile handsets.
At a joint Sony and Ericsson press conference in Stockholm, Per Nordlof, Ericsson's director of product strategy told reporters that about one third of the world's mobile phone users will regularly be watch TV broadcasts on their handsets in two years. "It plays to the strength of both companies," Eric Siereveld, Sony Europe's director of professional solutions, was reported saying. He claimed Ericsson was the lead supplier of mobile TV networks, while Sony has a lead in TV receiving equipment. Such solutions - based on the Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA), a cross-industry standard for allowing digital devices to share content through a home network - could hit the market by the second half of 2007, Nordlof said. Ericsson and Sony will also work together to create new software to power such DLNA-based home networks, he said. source:itwire

It is a specialist area. Mobile phones are built from mixture of bought in technologies. Having said that, it is already pretty amazing that a phone will run as long as it does from a wafer-thin battery.
