LIN TV in conjunction with Capitol Broadcasting’s News Over Wireless is offering mobile TV software for BlackBerry phones, LIN says (pdf file).
LIN operates 27 television stations and released BlackBerry software on August 7 that was customized for six of the stations: WISH, WAVY, KRQE, WANE, WALA and KXAN (see below). LIN also offers iPhone applications.
New Over Wireless has been a pioneer in developing platform and client software for mobile television, and I’ve written about the company several times.
Mobile TV might have many detractors, but there certainly are a variety of ways to obtain it in the United States — from cellular operators, directly from content providers and from TV stations.
