Mobile TV service on way from Vodafone

TV-on-mobile-phone--The-deb.jpg Vodafone is planning to launch mobile phone TV in time for Christmas to try and attract more British customers on to its 3G service, reports The Guardian.

"Vodafone, like many of Europe's mobile phone companies, has spent billions of pounds buying licences for 3G and building networks that can make use of the technology, which opens the door to fast video and music downloading as well as video calling.

But consumers do not seem to have embraced the new technology and increasingly mobile phone companies are looking for something that people do understand which can be squeezed on to a mobile phone."
