There will 'soon' be "an app for that" (ATSC Mobile DTV), but on a different network. It will be part of the Washington/Baltimore Consumer trial that OMVC is coordinating. The device is quite cool!

But they claim 10000+ apps so maybe there is "an app for that"?DanSorry, no hardware support for that...I will also anxiously await developments in the 700 MHz spectrum. I don't see how deploying 6 MHz MPH channels is going to provide the payback necessary to earn a decent ROI on the cost of the 700 MHz spectrum. And one must question why, when there is such a push for MORE SPECTRUM, that the stuff they just bought WOULD NOT be used for mobile broadband.Regards Craig ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can UNSUBSCRIBE from the OpenDTV list in two ways:- Using the UNSUBSCRIBE command in your user configuration settings at FreeLists.org - By sending a message to: opendtv-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
