    There was this article in the Atlanta Business Chronicles about how that TBS, FOX and other big broadcast stations would have services on the next generations of phones to have FREE over the air TV.

    And there were a bunch more really good articles in the ABC. I just thought that one was really interesting.

    More than likely the broadcasts will be free, but the carriers will charge you to access them.

    Kindof like Verizon does for mobile tv.... but according to ABC they didn't say anything about carriers charging you for it, because it will be over-the-air meaning it will come from ABC, FOX, CBS, etc. radio towers

    Cool, since they've outlawed both talking on the cell without a hands-free unit and outlawed texting while driving, I don't have anything to distract me from the drudgery of driving.
