"This week, the company released a report on its trial of the mobile TV system, known as Digital Video Broadcast-Handset (DVB-H), with Finnish state broadcaster YLE.

The six-month trial in the Finnish capital Helsinki culminated in live coverage of the World Athletics Championships there last month. It successfully demonstrated that the technology can deliver sharp, steady pictures with clear stereo sound to people on the move".
