Packet Video provides a service whereby you can stream mobile TV from DVB-H or MediaFlo to a Wi-Fi equipped smartphone.
It uses a tiny little battery-powered module to collect the mobile signals and includes a Wi-Fi transmitter to send the signals to your phone.
You have to connect to the network created by the Packet Video module, log in through your phone's browser, and away you go.
