Nokia plans new mobile TV trial

Reuters reports that Nokia will launch a commercial mobile TV trial with radio and TV operator Teracom in Sweden later this year.

"The test, to be run in Stockholm from October to December, will allow 400 consumers to watch 14 TV channels and listen to four radio channels using Nokia N92 mobiles, the Finnish company said in a statement.

Nokia said it also would supply the broadcast system for the pilot scheme, using DVB-H (digital video broadcasting handheld) technology, which bypasses regular telecoms networks by broadcasting directly to mobile phones."
