inverse_bloom 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2009 Mmm... I can't really think why that technology would be practical. It just seems overkill to me. However, if it received HDTV with no link up that would be impressive, then they could have "average definition" digital channels aimed at mobile phones for you to scan through. That would be good.

rayzoredge 2 Report post Posted December 17, 2009 Think about it this way:Almost everyone has a cell phone or will have one. Cell phones are becoming more and more of a part of our daily lives, not just as a communications device but an entertainment one as well. With the vast amount of things you can do with smart phones and the direction that cell phone companies are taking in saturating the consumer market with rich digital media, mass storage, and whatnot, HDTV via a cell phone with mass storage would almost be something that makes sense.Think of the infamous iPhone, which, despite AT&T's efforts to struggle with the data bandwidth that iPhone users are straining the network with, still is popular and can store your pictures, movies, and music. Wouldn't it be convenient to be able to go over to someone's house, talk about the day, get around to talking about family, then whipping out your iPhone 7GS, connecting it to your buddy's HDTV (wirelessly or by wire), and share photos of your kids in full HD? (It would literally replace taking pictures out of your wallet to pass around.)Or if you had a few or a dozen HD movies stored on your phone and had access to a HDTV, you could just stream or play the HD content to the HDTV.Or what-have-you.
