T-Mobile ay on their website that TV on your mobile is just around the corner but doesnt say when. Any insiders got any idea when it is launched?

Unfortunately, it won't be for a while yet - in Europe anyway. Its taken so long for the different organisations to agree on a standard that the EC had to intervene and warn them they are falling behind other parts of the world.

Now, that the format has been decided (dvb-h)we should expect it around this time next year.

I remember first watching tv on my w900 back in december 2005. This is the next generation though and look forward to seeing dvb-h in use ;-)

if it is DVB-H does that mean that our normal phones wont work with it?
The web page on t-mobiles site shows a N95

I was just reading the wiki about it and I'd say not as it uses VHF/UHF and L bands

it does mention Nokia 7710, N92 and N77 as being compatible as well as a few various other phones from other manufacturers

It doesn't seem to mention t-mobile or any other UK carriers though

You can do that with any 3g phone at the moment but the quality from dvb-h will be in a whole new league - digital tv standard.

It will be 'broadcast' just like digital radio and digital tv is and picked up by the phone the same way radio is.
