    Mobile TV service as a streaming service is extremely positive development.
    BSNL networks have the widest reach and the Flat rates are what has been lacking in Mobile Tv service offerings so far.


    More information on handset types or requirementa will help a lot.

    The lauch of 3G services by MTNL is a step closer to Mobile TV in India, though the number of users on its networks are today limited. MobiTV in the US has recently crossed 5 million subscribers. MobiTV is primarily a service offered over 3G networks of a number of operators.

    We hope that auction process which has been delayed till 30th Jan 2009 is this time done on time and the Mobile Tv tests its mettle on the multifaceted and entertainment rich content in the second largest mobile market in the world.
