Yes VZW is, or is going to offer TV services that supporting devices. I don't know if Sprint VUE is going to be released. Sprint VUE was or is the TV service for Sprint. They may have named it something else. I know Comcast will help Sprint with their TV services. It's in several test markets. You can watch live TV on any Sprint multi-media phone through Orb. You can also listen to your music, watch the movies and shows that's stored in the computer, to the phone. Check it out at orb.com. 😎

Not yet. They are working on offering MediaFlo from Qualcomm, but they are worried customer will not pay extra for it. A lot of Verizon customers pay the $15 a month or Vcast because it is unlimited. Not because of the content it offers. See their music download numbers. They are still very low. So Verizon customer don't really have the taste for advanced media like those of other carriers. Plus VCast content doesn't work in CDMA 1x parts of the nation. So it is going to be a logistical nightmare for Verizon if they need the Mediaflo service to fallback to their own network. Or if they plan on offering something else with or instead of mediaflo.
