British Telecom and Virgin Mobile will be the first mobile operators to offer broadcast television service for the Trilogy, according to HTC. Virgin Mobile says it will offer the broadcast service on a "limited exclusive basis" later this year, providing access to a wide range of digital TV content and more than 350 DAB digital radio stations broadcasting twenty-four hours a day.
According to HTC, the introduction of push email on the Windows Mobile 5.0 platform is expected to drive "significant growth of the market for wireless email" and generate further demand for smartphones and PDAs.
"Our partners demand products for Direct Push Email and Mobile TV that give them the best competitive advantage to serve their customers. We believe that Microsoft's Direct Push e-mail solution is a very compelling proposition for large as well as small and medium business customers. The Mobile TV will provide our customers and end user brand new service and bring new innovation for user experience and business development", stated HTC president Peter Chou.
