LG’s new HB620T DVB-T phone offers free mobile TV to Germany

You can now officially kiss commercial-driven mobile TV goodbye with the LG-HB620T mobile phone, the first in the world to offer DVB-T or Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial, the cost-free free cousin of Digital Video Broadcasting-Handheld (DVB-H).

The LG-HB620T is set to be released first in Germany, and O2, T-Mobile, and Vodafone, will be among the first ones to get it. France, Greek, Czech and Austria are also possible targets for a consequent launch, where DVB-T is a commercialized service.

This handset, of course, is also more than just a ticket for free mobile TV. It’s also a high-speed mobile with HSDPA network support, and this is complemented full-blown Internet browsing on its 2-inch screen.

Other features include Bluetooth connectivity, a media player, 2 megapixel camera, and support for memory cards.

No details on pricing have been announced yet.

    France, Greek, Czech and Austria..... Perhaps you meant Czech Republic, or Czechia. Unless you meant one specific citizen of Czechia among all the other countries.
