TIM will launch TV on mobile phones

Telecom Italia Mobile (TIM) has launched a new service, enabling customers to watch TV on their multimedia GPRS handsets: mobile TV.

Initially the television partners joining TIM in this experimental phase are: La 7, MTV, CFN/CNBC and Coming Soon.

TIM will offer this service free of charge for the rest of this year. At the moment TIM has 26 million subscribers, according to Telecom Paper.

Please note I've added a new relevant category to Picturephoning, TV Capable Cell Phones.
