Verizon Wireless moves into the mobile TV arena

There were plenty of talks about Verizon adding Rev. A to their EVDO network all over the blogosphere the past few weeks. With that (and the added speeds that Rev. A would deliver to your handset), now there is talk of how Verizon will capitalize on the increased speeds—besides serving ads to your phone.
According to the image above from Howard Forums, Verizon is planning to release “Mobile TV” on January 30th in correspondence with Qualcomm’s MediaFLO. While this could be a project name for a handset with a large screen or TV capability (ala the Nokia N93), I would suspect that the company that has brought you VCast will soon be delivering TV.
(Other releases for Verizon in Q1 listed on this calendar include the Palm Treo 700wx, Samsung i760, and four other handsets.)

I just got a data plan on my mobile. I pretty much do not need my computer anymore since I do so much with my mobile phone. The neatest thing is that I can even watch naughty movies:) It is pretty neat, it’s called Mobile TV. All I do is point my phone to sexoncell.com and they have adult mobile movies in different formats like 3gp movies, symbian, pda or whatever. If you have any other cool sites, please let me know! This one, though, even has a free daily mobile movie.
