Future of Mobile TV

My opinion about mobile TV is that it will continue to develop into a live broadcast medium for almost every cell phone, PDA, and smart phone. I think that in the future, mobile TV will be integrated into most phones as an extra feature. PDAs and smartphones will soon have the capability to broadcast live streaming videos and programs as if you were to watch them in your house. However, I don’t think mobile TV will take the place of traditional television because the size of screen, special features, and battery consumption. These three features will always have an advantage over mobile TV. Mobile TV will change the way people use their mobile devices, but not enough to have any serious impact at the present moment. I not a big fan of mobile TV, but if cell phone companies continue to develop technologies and features for mobile device, then I will reconsider. Wouldn’t it be crazy if you could watch live sport events on your mobile phone in HD? That would be crazy. Maybe this feature is not that far to imagine in the future.
