We've heard quite a lot about AT&T's marketing ideas these last couple of days. First we had the $40 iPhone plans for deaf people, then we heard AT&T are going to sell the new 3G iPhone for $199 for a two year subscription plan and today we hear that AT&T are launching cell phone TV Plans.
First of all I am the kind of guy that mostly uses his cell phone for, and you will laugh at this, calling people. I know, that's so unusual right? I wouldn't want to take pictures or watch TV on a 3 inch screen.
But there are lots of people who would do those things to a cell phone and this $15/month plan will suit them. AT&T will match Verizon Wireless' V Cast Mobile TV and the service will be delivered via the same company Qualcomm Inc. The plan includes 10 channels. 8 are shared with Verizon: CBS Mobile, Comedy Central, ESPN Mobile TV, Fox Mobile, MTV, NBC 2Go, NBC News 2Go and Nickelodeon and 2 are exclusive: PIX, which screens movies from Sony Pictures, and CNN Mobile Live.
But there's a catch. You will only have to phones on which this service will be available starting Sunday. These are the LG Vu, a touch screen phone for $299.99, and the Samsung Access, a more traditional phone for $199.99. Prices apply after a $100 rebate and only for 2-year plans. The service will be available in more than 58 locations across the USA.
If you are always watching TV and this AT&T plan sounds like a good idea, maybe you should also know that more and more TV stations are considering mobile broadcasting for free. This is a rumor thing just yet and these kind of services will be available in 2009.

I could actually see this working. I mean who wouldn't want a cell phone, a GPS receiver, a PDA, VOIP phone, AND a satellite phone bundled into one, minus the bulky satellite antenna. And the fact that it will all be laid out on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional with all the usual connectivity options including WiFi and Bluetooth makes me like this one even more. It will also have a QVGA touchscreen and a 3-megapixel camera rounding its already fabulous features, while being a tad bit thicker than your usual PDA phone.
If it becomes a reality, this do-it-all phone will work on quad-band GSM/GPRS, HSDPA, and satellite networks. The promised talktimes don't seem too bad with up to 5 hours on GSM networks, 3 hours on WCDMA, and 1.3 hours on satellite networks using its 1400mAh battery. It will be able to handle a variety of image, audio, and formats with support for newer video formats like H.264 and H.263 at 30fps.
Cost you ask? If things turn out well, Elektrobit claims that it can deliver this monster at the price of a regular cell phone. All this sounds sweet but the whole concept hinges on the Terrestar Satellite being up and running by 2009, which is when this baby is expected to roll out.
