Anyway, the flow tv is a really cool idea, but for the price I think you'd be better off waiting for ATSC to be implemented. Although, that could take decades at the pace america seems to adopt new mobile technology.]]>Dec 3rd 2009 7:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/switched-on-the-tv-is-personal-again/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/switched-on-the-tv-is-personal-again/Dec 3rd 2009 7:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/switched-on-the-tv-is-personal-again/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/switched-on-the-tv-is-personal-again/Dec 3rd 2009 7:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/switched-on-the-tv-is-personal-again/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/switched-on-the-tv-is-personal-again/Totally had the same thoughts.

I'd rather have a "personnal TV" that can receive free ATSC signals. And an SD card slot for playing your own media files is a better idea.

Japan's 1seg and Korea's DMB are pretty cool ideas that should be implemented in the States, now that we have all that available wireless spectrum.

word, the monthly service is the killer part of the deal for me. no thanks.

i have my PSPGO and LocationFree TV base and does the trick just fine (sure i need to either tether data to my phone or use wifi.. but still)

A subscription-based TV service with no frills, no signal underground (subways, hellllloooo?!?), inability to bring in OnDemand content (whether owned by yourself or streamed), etc? Pffttt... in the Wired/Tired standing, this is comatose Rip Van Winkle on Ambien. ZzzzzZzzzzzzZzzzzz...

Even with hi-res screens, unless you add an hdmi port, no one's going to be watching normal TV on these small devices. Hulu maybe, but not regular TV.

This appears to be just repackaging mediaFLO since Qual heavily invested in the technology and distribution network back in 2005.]]>Dec 4th 2009 3:49PM
