Here’s a spicy rumor for you all to enjoy. Apparently RIM is planning some sort of BlackBerry TV store/service/thing, and may launch it as early as CTIA next week. (CTIA is like CES, but just for cellphone stuff; actually, a more accurate comparison would have been with Barcelona’s Mobile World Congress; thank you.) It’d be a subscription service, and the TV shows download over a Wi-Fi connection; it won’t use your data (3G if you’re lucky) connection at all.
Of course, these are just rumors. Supposedly there’s more than a few networks who have licensed content for there store, so there’s that.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t the BlackBerry Storm not have Wi-Fi? Wouldn’t that be the best BlackBerry to view TV shows? So, if, indeed, this rumor pans out, we’ll see how RIM tries to spin that.
this is really a spicy rumor for me, thank you for your share.Here I also have a spicy new for share, that is : Tradestead, there are many kinds of cheap and beautiful consumer electronics which really give me much fun, I am sure you will like it!
Might be a better solution than stupid 3G streamings, which are a mess, when you actually have time to watch but no connection at all. Would kill even the classic broadcast technologies like DVB-H or QualComm. German start-up dailyme.tv has such store already for Symbian, Android, WindowsMobile and JAVA says NewTeeVee (http://newteevee.com/2009/03/25/blackberry-to-launch-tv-episode-streaming/#comment-257650)
Sounds pretty cool; could be useful to blackberry owners looking for a little tech help etc. So far I’ve been using this* digital security site.
