MobiTV now available on Windows Mobile platform

MobitvStreaming video to a PDA or phone is all the rage and MobiTV has extended its service to devices running Windows Mobile 5.0.  The new Windows Mobile version of MobiTV is available through the company directly and through Handango, which reports it runs on the following compatible devices:

  • Audiovox PPC 6700
  • Cingular 8125
  • Palm Treo 700w
  • Sprint PPC-6700
  • Verizon XV6700

The service costs $9.99 per month and provides many major channels including The Weather Channel, ESPN, Fox Sports, Toon World, Comedy Time, C/NET, among others.  I am going to give it a try on my Treo and report back how well it works.

Comments

$10/mo for content I already rent? No thanks. I'd rather buy a tuner card and use Orb or buy a Slingbox and portable software. Both give me many more options (music, more channels, laptop playback) and are free to use after the initial investment.
