LG phone taps TV networks

The new phone could be a game-changing solution.

France, Finland and several other European countries prefer DVB-H. Asian and U.S. vendors prefer DMB and MediaFLO. This division is just one factor in the slow deployment of mobile TV, including the need to agree on spectrums, adapt laws and forge agreements between content providers and telecom operators.
