Gadgetell | Tech News, Reviews, and Interesting Things

FLO TV aims to bring television to more places like your phone and your car.  Sure, there are ways to get prerecorded programming on a portable device, but this is live television.  FLO TV partnered up with Audiovox to bring live TV to the automobile.  Gadgetell got to take a look at the FLO TV interface on both a phone and in the car; you can, too, if you watch the video. 

The interface was quite snappy and very familiar if you’ve ever used a modern channel guide on cable or satellite.  Television programming continues to play in the upper right corner as you call up a channel guide.  You also have the option of flipping through channels normally.  For the automobile version there are both wired and wireless remotes, although they did not have any of the wireless variety on hand.  There was approximately a 1-2 second delay between changing channels, but nothing out of the ordinary when compared to cable television.  Playback was smooth and not choppy.  FLO TV video is best suited to the small screen as it is relatively low resolution.  A representative for FLO TV said that they aim to supplement cable and satellite, not replace them.
