TV or Movie on a portable?Why not?
But I do not see it as direct streaming to a portable.
I see the portable more as a mobile device you bring with you and in which you store your movies or TV programs...
I know that won't bring rvenues to the mobile providers...but THAT IS EXACTLY the point.
Why should you pay to download on a slow, low bandwidth, highly expensive, wireless line when you can on the Internet?
You plan it, download it from the Internet, or from your computer and bring your mobile (I think a PDA would have a better size screen) and watch it, on a train, on a plane,(in the office) or wherever you want to...
That is the most probable future, or at least the most probable near future.
May be someday, somehow the technology will allow to see TV on your small screen, but not now, with 3 frames per second...(Telecom Italia TV on a portable phone...)
