QUALCOMM, a leader in advanced wireless technologies, and Verizon Wireless today announced a new partnership to provide Verizon customers real-time mobile television and video services. MediaFLO, a subsidiary of QUALCOMM, and Verizon Wireless expect to launch mobile TV services over the MediaFLO network in approximately half of the markets already covered by Verizon Wireless’ CDMA2000 1xEV-DO-based broadband network, enabling Verizon Wireless to offer real-time mobile TV services of unprecedented quality to its subscribers. Verizon Wireless will be the first U.S. wireless service provider to offer MediaFLO when the network is commercially available.
