Korea To Offer Free Nationwide Mobile Broadcasting in 2006
By
Free broadcasting services to handheld devices like cell phones may be offered across the country next year after testing later this year in Seoul and the surrounding Kyonggi Province. Now if we can only get something like that going in major US cities! America was first to embrace cell phones, but are slow to move over to other cellular advances!
The service, called terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (DMB), enables people on the road to enjoy crystal-clear video, theater-like audio and receive data via handheld devices. In Seoul and its vicinity, mobility-specific broadcasting is likely to start late this year. The Ministry of Information and Communication already issued five mobile broadcast licenses early this month.
