Sirius and XM both will offer video as part of it's satellite audio service 
to the US market.  I presume Crown Castle will at least consider mobile 
receivers for their nationwide DVB-H service when they build it out. 
Mercedes in Europe already offer DVB-T reception as an option in select 
models.

The only vaporware is Gen X.

BTW, markets seldom begin at the bottom of the price scale.  But with DVD 
players more and more popular in US Land Yachts (standard in some!), a 
working mobile DTT system could have been interesting.
