If you're sick of all those lame disclaimers
we throw into various DVB/DMB posts -- that we're not going to be seeing this slick device in the US, nope not never --
well it looks like Crown Castle has some good news for you. They say they're all set to launch
domestic DVB-H service this year,
with 2007 expansions to about half the US population, primarily metro. Crown says their service will be targeted at

their feet though, Samsung and LG are already ready to support the service with devices, along with Qualcomm and
Verizon's competing MedioFlo which is due this October.
