Page 2 of 2 PV’s mobile receiver does have an ace of sorts up its sleeve, as they will offer the receiver in “versions for all major mobile broadcast standards, including TDtv, DVB-H and MediaFLO as well as for WiMAX”. And while many articles on the Internet are focusing on how this can turn the iPhone and iPod Touch into mobile TVs, PV says the mobile broadcast receiver is “compatible with many industry-leading phones including the Nokia N-series, Apple iPhone and HTC Smartphone devices”. Which means they’ll have a wide market. While no pricing has been unveiled yet, the PV features a “rechargeable lithium-ion battery, and the glowing LED on/off button has a colour-changing halo that reflects the level of battery charge”. The device measures measures 6.4 cm wide by 1.8 cm high x 4 cm deep, so it’s eminently pocketable and will be available later this year. PV’s emphasise their mobile video cred, saying their “experience in mobile broadcast software goes back several years, with the frequent public demonstration of dedicated mobile TV reference devices operating on a number of silicon and broadcast standard platforms. These devices showcased such PV innovations as fast channel changing, personal video recording and picture-in-picture capabilities, all for mobile broadcast”. All we need now, in Australia at least, is for someone to start broadcasting in DVB-H, TDtv, DVB-H, MediaFLO, WiMAX or anything else, or they won’t sell any down under!
